PLAZA Theatre in Romsey has appealed to the public for support as it tries to raise funds for a new wheelchair lift.

The theatre is hoping to raise the funds to put a lift in place between the foyer to the auditorium, as the current one stopped working last year.

A grant application has been filed to Test Valley Borough Council, which would cover half of the £18,000 needed.
