The certainly had something to shout about, being a member of not just one organisation but two.

Not only was she a member of a local choir but she had just gained her Queen’s Guide gold award as a member of the 1st Farnley Guides.

The teenager, who then lived in Whincover Gardens, Old Farnley, was also a chorister at St Michael’s Church, Farnley. She looks happy as Larry in these pictures and rightly so.
