COPIES of a CD featuring Swindon's Christ Church choir have made more than £3,500 profit to go towards repair costs.

So far, around 650 copies have been sold. Christ Church's Director of Music Tim Eyles, pictured, said: "We only needed to sell 350 of the 1,000 copies to break even."

The album, which features hymns like All Things Bright And Beautiful and In the Bleak Midwinter, was launched before Christmas to help raise cash for the Skyline Appeal.

The appeal aims to raise more than £1.5 million to pay for urgent repairs to the Old Town landmark. CDs cost £10, plus £1 for postage and packing.
