Huge privilege to attend the Friendship Matinee at the Royal Albert Hall. We managed to squeeze in as extras as our daughter, Polly, received tickets for her work in a remarkable feeding programme in the East End of London. Such a wonderful, joyous, celebratory concert. Well done RAH, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, National Youth Choir, Royal Choral Society, the guards who provided fanfares, an amazing BSL signer, our welcome, Jess, conductor Richard & soloist Cleopatra Rey. 

This concert is described as;

“… a Friendship Matinee of Carols at the Royal Albert Hall. Featuring a delightful programme of timeless classics and contemporary carols that will undoubtedly get you in the festive spirit!
Friendship Matinees welcome people of all ages who may engage with a charity or community group. These events offer a relaxed attitude to movement and noise in the auditorium, plus ‘chill-out’ spaces around the building – you can move about, dance, sing or just listen.”

Amazing! #RAH #christmasconcert #christmascarols
