Hundreds enjoyed Wistaston Community Council’s annual Christmas Concert took place at St Mary’s Church Hall in Wistaston.

It featured Wells Green Choir and musicians from Shavington High School’s Concert Band.

Carols sung by the audience were Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Silent Night, I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas and Winter Wonderland.

There was also a raffle with 19 prizes, and festive refreshments were available during the interval.

The event was a sell-out and was attended by Mayor of Cheshire East Cllr Dorothy Flude and her consort Alex Flude.

The event was supported by The Woodside public house and H Clewlow Butchers of Nantwich.

Dane Chaplow, chairman of Wistaston Community Council, thanked the choir, the band, Cllr Flude and her consort for attending and the audience for their support.

He also praised former Wistaston Community Council President Geoff Armitage, an organiser for many years and an integral part of the community. Geoff is currently recovering from illness.

All profits from the concert will be donated to children’s charities.

Wistaston Community Council is seeking new members to help organise next year’s concert and other village events like the spring concert, summer fete, flower and produce show, and the fireworks display.
