A TEACHER from Urmston has helped to boost the British Heart Foundation - for the second time in three years.

Paul Cassidy, aged 29, organised a fundraising event for the charity called 'Heart and Soul'.

Held at the Our Lady and English Martyrs' Parish Centre in Davyhulme, it raised more than £8,750.

Attractions included hot food, a raffle, auction, and live music.

In 2013 he held a similar event which raised £7,500 for the same cause.

Paul suffers from congenital heart disease and has a pacemaker.
