After the success of their June performance, a local care home is preparing for their Christmas Carol Concert as team members and residents come together once again to form the fantastic Choirchester Choir.

The activity team and residents at Scarborough Hall Care Home in Scarborough have been rehearsing well known traditional Christmas songs ready for the performance at Queen Street Methodist Church at 2pm on Tuesday, December 5.

Joining the Scarborough Hall team will be the other sister homes from Barchester’s North region alongside their local Gladstone Road Glee Club Choir.
