Carolling for a good cause
AS Christmas draws
closer, the NSPCC is inviting people across Merseyside to join its annual
Carols by Candlelight concert on Tuesday, 15 December 2015 to raise vital funds
for the charity's Call for Help Appeal.
Taking place at Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, from 7:30pm, the concert will
feature performances from children and young people in the Wirral Schools
Concert Band, the Liverpool Signing Choir and Circle of Voices Gospel Choir,
who will delight those in attendance with carols, traditional music and
singing in the stunning candlelit setting of the cathedral.
Tickets for the event, which is being sponsored for the 9th year running by
Merseyside based retailer Home Bargains, are available now priced at £10 per
adult, and £5 for concessions. Family tickets are also available, at £25 for
2 adults and 2 children.
Tom Morris, managing director at Home Bargains, said:- "We're thrilled
to be supporting Carols by Candlelight for the ninth year running and are
proud to support the incredible work that the NSPCC does every single day.
As a Merseyside based family run company, our heart is still very much in
Liverpool and we're extremely passionate about supporting causes such as
this one to help local people. The charity's ChildLine Service, which
proceeds from this evening will go towards, acts as a lifeline to children
who have nowhere else to turn."
Daniel Poole, NSPCC community fundraising manager for Liverpool, said:-
"For most children, Christmas is magical, but for others, it's a time
when they feel more alone than ever; when they're struggling to cope with
being neglected, bullied or abused.
Carols by Candlelight is not only a beautiful Christmas celebration, it's
also the perfect way to support our Christmas Appeal, Call for Help, to
ensure our ChildLine service is able to offer support and hope to the
thousands of children who will get in touch this Christmas and in the year
ahead."
