An annual concert is returning to the stage in York for the 66th year.
York’s Annual Community Carol Concert is coming to York Barbican on Sunday, December 15, at 2pm.
Last year’s event raised £6,200 with £2,500 going towards the Lord Mayor and Sheriff of York’s Christmas Cheer Fund, along with representatives of SNAPPY who also received £2,500 and a further £1,000 going to York Hospital Radio.
Smaller donations of £100 were presented to York Against Cancer and Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
