THE Primrose Choir will be holding their annual Christmas concert at Astwood Bank First School in Redditch this year.

On Friday, December 9, from 7pm, the group will be performing a programme of festive favourites, old and new, including the popular Twelve Days of Christmas, which was a favourite with last year's audience.

There will be a raffle on the night, with prizes including meal vouchers for local pubs and restaurants.

The choir will be joined once again by the Astwood Bank First School Choir, which will be performing Christmas classics such as 'Do You Hear What I Hear?' and 'Sky at Midnight'.

Proceeds from the concert will be donated to the Primrose Hospice Centre of Care charity, which helps residents and their families in Bromsgrove and Redditch who are faced with life-limiting illnesses.

Tickets cost £9 for adults and £5 for children and are available on 01527 546158 or directly from the Primrose Hospice on 01527 889796,

There will also be a limited number of tickets available at the school on the night.

Anyone interested in joining the choir, which practices every Wednesday evening, is urged to contact either of the above numbers for more information.
