THE Blackburn People's Choir is asking their audience to make sure to wrap up warm for their annual Christmas concert.
Holy Trinity Church in Mount Pleasant, Blackburn, where the concert is set to take place, has no heating and organisers are concerned it will be cold.
Ann Parker, choir secretary, said: "We are asking people to make themselves as comfortable as possible with scarves and cushions and blankets.
"Any blankets left behind we will give to a charity collecting items for Syrian refugees.
"We’re hoping to have fairy lights for the audience and we are welcoming members of Accrington Pipe Band for the second time.
"Please come along and help us to create a really festive evening.
"There will be refreshments and a raffle and plenty of fun."
The concert will also feature the choir’s youth group Vocalise, who recently came second in the junior choral competition at Fleetwood Music Festival.
Jeff Borradaile, musical director for both choirs, said: "These young people have worked very hard and we would like them to have a chance to sing their songs to a wider audience."
The event will take place on Friday, December 15 at 7.30pm, there will be refreshments and a raffle.
