The Wiltshire Singers are hosting a movie-themed Christmas concert in a bid to raise money for homeless people in the area.

The event, which takes place on Friday, December 19, at St Thomas Church in Trowbridge, will not only offer an evening of festive songs from popular Christmas films, but will also aim to raise funds for Helping the Homeless, West Wilts.

Attendees can look forward to performances of seasonal favourites from films such as The Polar Express, Home Alone, Elf, A Muppet Christmas Carol, and The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.

Musical Director Denise Drew said the concert will offer "beautiful music, family entertainment, and fun for everyone".

Entry costs £5, with under 16s permitted free of charge.

The concert will also comprise a bar and a raffle, with all proceeds dedicated to benefitting homeless individuals in West Wiltshire.

The choir host three charity fundraising concerts annually.

Over the last ten years, they have raised more than £10,000.

The Wiltshire Singers, established in 2014, are continually on the lookout for new members.
