FORT Matilda Burns Club is holding its annual Burns Supper on Friday January 5.

The club, which dates back to 1936, will be the first in Inverclyde to hold the annual celebration.

It will take place in the Lodge Firth of Clyde 626 Masonic Hall in John Street, Gourock at 7pm.

David Docherty, club secretary, said: "We are always the first club in the area to hold a Burns Supper, we are only a small club and we are hoping to build up the committee."

He said the group had donated thousands of pounds to a local charity over the years.

The supper will be held at 7pm and if anyone wants more information they should call Mr Docherty on 0759998341.
