WHEN Leigh’s Elaine Eddison attended a family get together in Essex she met a former war evacuee who arrived in town in 1941.

Now, on his behalf, she is seeking a former “little sweetheart” he had a soft spot for.

Charlie stayed with a family in West Avenue and went to Butts school. He would like to know if Audrey Blears, who lived in Warrington Road, Leigh, is still in the area.

If anyone knows anything about her or her family and would like to get in touch with Charlie they can contact 07931769652 or email russ.eddison@blueyonder.co.uk for more information.
