FAMILIES in Warrington are being invited to get dramatically caught in the Red Nose Day fundraising madness.

This year the Helen O'Grady Drama Academy is holding special lessons in four community centres in the town to raise funds for the March 16 money-maker.

Children will invite their parents to join in the classes and pay for the privilege.

Lessons cover speech, movement, creative drama, language development and lots of dressing up.

The centres taking part in the fundraiser are Great Sankey Leisure Centre (March 10), Grappenhall Community Centre (March 13), St Mary's Parish Hall (March 14) and Culcheth Methodist Church Hall (March 14).

Organisers are hoping that all of the events, running across the country, will raise in excess of £10,000.
