Good afternoon, 

A member of the public has a piano that is free to a good home and will be delivered free in Glossop. We already have a piano in school and it would be shame if nobody can make good use of it. 

If you are interested, please contact our office and we will put you in contact with the person. This will be on a first come, first serve basis.
