PARENTS have saved the day - after pupils at Cockermouth School were upset to hear that prom was not going ahead.
Lots of mums, dads and local businesses have rallied round to ensure the show will go on - and the Year 11 pupils could not be happier.
Leah Belle got the ball rolling when she put out a plea for help on a town Facebook page. She was inundated with offers. Donations of £1,200 have also poured in from local businesses and people keen to show their support.
Mum of three Leah explained that the school had sent out details of how they would mark the end of the year, with no mention of prom.
