Patrick Church was again packed out to hear a Christmas concert given by Hartes Ease in aid of the Knockaloe charity.

The very varied programme contained something for everyone and the interval refreshments, provided by the musicians, again proved popular.

It is hoped to make this an annual event.  More details to follow in due course.
