WHAT A WAY to start the festive season... starving yourself.
For that is exactly what members of Brierfield Youth Centre did on Saturday and Sunday – though all for a good cause.
Twenty three young people from the centre with two group leaders, locked themselves in the club for 24 hours without food, starting at 6 pm. on Saturday, to raise money for charity.
Mr Michael Goldsborough, the centre leader, organised a disco which kept the youngsters occupied for much of the time, and there was also table tennis, pool and table football for them.
