Workshop in memory of Paris
5:56pm Monday 12th May 2008
A DANCE and drumming workshop is being held next week in memory of a five-year-old girl who died of cancer.
The event, at Stoops and Hargher Clough Youth Club, Venice Street, Burnley, is for Paris Devlin, who died in August.
The workshop will include a performance by local youngsters dedicated to the brave former Cherry Fold Primary School pupil.
Paris died at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, Pendlebury, after being diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a rare cancer that affects fewer than 100 children in the UK each year.
She had been ill for three weeks and had only been diagnosed with the cancer a week before she died.
A memorial garden has been opened by Prince's Trust volunteers at Paris's former school for friends to remember her by.
The workshop is next Saturday from 1pm to 4pm.
