Comedienne Victoria Wood is coming to the region to celebrate the tenth anniversary of a music therapy charity.

She is patron of Jessie's Fund, which helps seriously ill children through the therapeutic use of music.

It was set up in memory of Jessica George, who died of a brain tumour ten years ago.

Victoria will host a festival of music, in York, starting next week, to mark a decade of charity work.

Details of all the festival's events are available on (01904) 658189, or by visiting www.jessiesfund.org.uk
