A KINDLY couple who run a drama group for young people in Little Lever are the central characters in this week's Bouquet of the Week nomination.

One appreciative mum, Pat Higson, wrote on behalf of other parents to nominate Barbara Sobrero and Martin Edge.

"They give so much of their time in supporting young people in a drama group they run at a church hall on Friday evenings," said Mrs Higson.

"The young people don't have to attend church and some have special needs. All the children really benefit such a lot from this group. Barbara suffers from diabetes but never lets it get her down. We would like to show them just how much we appreciate what they do."

Barbara and Martin were surprised to be nominated and loved the flowers, courtesy of Caroline Ward's flower and gift delivery service (0800-289-335).
