Graham Nash donates £10,000 to embattled Salford Lads Club

Singer-songwriter with the Hollies and CSNY attended youth club as a boy, where he gave his first ever singing performance

Graham Nash, the singer-songwriter from Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young who grew up in Salford, has donated 10,000 to the city's embattled Salford Lads Club.

The youth centre, most famous from being immortalised on the sleeve for the Smiths album The Queen Is Dead, is attempting to crowdfund 250,000 after a drop in grant funding threatened its future.
