Tonight’s performance at The Druitt Hall
The penultimate performance of Christchurch Living Advent Calendar 2022 was held at The Druitt Hall with the surprise entertainment being provided by Viva Voce, an award winning male and female voice choir formed in 2016.
After a wonderful set of seasonal songs a cheque for £500 was presented to Jim Oates of the Christchurch branch of Parkinson’s UK by Suzanne Kadziola from tonight’s sponsors, local solicitors Williams Thompson.
The final event of the CLAC 2022 programme will be held in Saxon Square at the earlier time of 2:00pm and we look forward to welcoming everyone to the grand finale.
