Join the SSAFA Christmas Concert in Stirling!

10 December 2024

It’s almost time to put the Christmas sprouts on to cook, and so it’s an equally perfect time for a concert of carols, festive music, and poems. 

There are many to choose from, but one of the hottest draws in 2024’s seasonal calendar is in aid of SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity featuring the West of Scotland Military Wives Choir, the SSAFA Brass Ensemble, and The Royal Highland Education (RHET) Factor Choir on Saturday, December 14, in Stirling.

Mary Kenyon, Branch Chairman Forth Valley, said: “I am absolutely delighted that the West of Scotland Military Wives Choir and the equally wonderful RHET Factor Choir will be performing in Stirling for us, bringing their unique blends of styles and repertoires to what promises to be an exciting, and I dare say moving, afternoon of festive songs, readings, and companionship.

“Military Wives Choirs has done so much in its magical first decade to bring companionship and support – values of course shared with SSAFA – to women whose serving spouses are deployed far from home overseas.”

As well as the West of Scotland Military Wives Choir and the RHET Factor Choir, the SSAFA Brass Ensemble will perform pieces together and alone. Included in the concert will be the traditional opening carol of Once in Royal David’s City, O Little Town of Bethlehem, and O Holy Night, as well as a host of other pieces for the audience to sing.

Mary added: “This concert is a great way to celebrate Christmas and support our Armed Forces at the same time, remembering the sacrifices made during conflict and during peace, so please join us if you can.”

Please feel free to call our Forcesline if you need any support.
