THERE will be a blend of familiar and more rarely heard Christmas music in Leominster Priory on December 18.

Guest conductor David Hatcher will take charge of the annual carol concert, which will include readings plus, in the interval, punch and mince pies.

The celebration is due to start at 7pm.

At the close there will be a collection for Age Concern and the We Want a Pool campaign.

Unreserved tickets are available at three shops in the town, Fletchers, Orchard Hive and Vine and My Candle Burns.
