BBC Radio Solent: Christmas Carol Concert at Chandler’s Ford Methodist Church

Christmas is almost here. This afternoon BBC Radio Solent was recording the annual Christmas carol concert at Chandler’s Ford Methodist Church. This festive event was hosted by Tim Daykin, and it also featured the Otterbourne Brass Band.

The church was packed with 400 people this afternoon. Were you one of the 400 people there as well? If so, please kindly share your experience with us.

The carol concert will be broadcast on BBC Radio Solent at 1pm on the 23rd of December. It will be played on Christmas day as well.
