Fresh from her set at Glastonbury, singer-songwriter Kate Nash is to headline a fledgling music festival in Accrington later on Saturday.

Oak Fest is returning to Oak Hill Park on Manchester Road for its second consecutive year, from 11:00 BST.

Organisers say the festival, which supports grassroots music, has been created "to nurture an ecosystem of local talent in the northwest".

Happy Mondays鈥 legends Bez and Rowetta will also perform a live DJ set.
