Dame Joanna Lumley invites you to join Kids for Kids at this year's Magical Candlelit Christmas Concert in Belgravia, London! Taking place this year on Thursday 4th December at 7pm at St Peter's Eaton Square, this event is the perfect start to the Christmas Season. 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 soloist Soprano Bibi Heal, accompanied by famous conductor Stephen Barlow and phenomenal pianist Mitra Alice Tham. You will hear festive readings from Celebrity Readers including our very own Patron, the Absolutely Fabulous, Dame Joanna Lumley. 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.
