Dame Joanna Lumley kicks off the festive season at charity Candlelit Christmas Concert to help children facing starvation in Darfur, Sudan.
Every penny raised in profit will help Kids for Kids Charity provide emergency food and aid items to children in Darfur, Sudan who face starvation because of the appalling violence that has been raging for over two years. Your presence at our concert will truly save lives!The evening will feature beautiful songs sung by the Junior and Senior Choirs of Queen's Gate School together with your favourite Christmas Carols to get you in the holiday spirit! We are delighted to welcome British Opera Soprano Bibi Heal, accompanied by famous conductor/pianist Stephen Barlow along with renowned Irish Harpist Lesley Magee world-class pianist Mitra Alice Tham. You will hear festive readings from our dear Patron, The Lord Cope of Berkeley PC, and the absolutely fabulous, Dame Joanna Lumley DBE FRGS. And of course what would a Christmas Concert be without a Trumpet Fanfare?! Thames Fanfare Brass will once again raise the roof and entertain us with Christmas classics. Hundreds of candles will fill the Church as we close the evening and head out to the cozy courtyard to enjoy Mulled Wine and Mince Pies (included in your ticket!).
We look forward to seeing you for the most magical start to the Festive Season! By attending the Kids for Kids Candlelit Christmas Concert with your family and friends you are helping transform the lives of children in remote villages of Darfur living in conditions of shocking deprivation. Clean water is not available – families drink surface water until it dries, when they then have to walk miles to find a handpump. There is virtually no health care, limited education, and now children face starvation in what the UN says is the ‘worst humanitarian crisis in the world today’, yet it is not in the news and no other organisation is helping. Children really need you, need us, right now.
