Flowers help church

A staffordshire church burst into flower today to raise funds for new windows.

The congregation of St. Matthew's Church, Harlaston, near Tamworth, teamed up to organise a weekend flower festival.

The special event ends tomorrow night with a special Songs of Praise service featuring hymns used as themes for the various flower displays.

Pictured preparing for the flower festival are Mrs Isobel Grove and church warden Mrs Mary Tiso.
