Letchworth Howard event helps young cancer sufferers

The event, Sounds of the Season, featured City Chorus, one of the area’s leading musical ensembles, with a programme of Christmas music old and new performed at Letchworth Garden City Free Church.

Among the highlights was a performance by local recording artiste and YouTube star Eirra of her own composition Alive. She is one of the many young people CLIC Sargent has helped, and received a rapturous reception.

With hot mince pies – generously donated by the Letchworth branch of the Morrisons supermarket chain, which has made CLIC Sargent its charity of the year – and wine and soft drinks on sale to complement the glorious music, audience members were lavish in their praise for what was widely agreed to have been a terrific evening.

The photographs show Eirra giving her performance as members of the choir look on, the choir in performance, and people enjoying the interval drinks and mince pies.
