A festive evening of Christmas carols and readings hosted by Melvyn Prior, with the Cranwell Military Wives, Caroline Barnes and the William Alvey School Choir, to support the air ambulance charity.
Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance are holding their Christmas Carol Concert in the Nave of Lincoln Cathedral on Thursday 10 December. It's a festive evening of carols and readings, and all the proceeds from the night go towards the charity's medical care across Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.
Former BBC Radio Lincolnshire presenter Melvyn Prior hosts the evening, with the music coming from the Cranwell Military Wives, trained chorister Caroline Barnes, and the William Alvey School Choir. The carols are woven together with readings from past patients and the air ambulance's own life-saving crew, who share insights into the missions that keep the service flying. It's that mix of music and first-hand accounts that brings the charity's work home.

On the practical side, the concert runs for about 90 minutes, with doors opening at 6:45pm and the start at 7:30pm. Tickets range from £11.55 to £27.80. A few things to keep in mind for the venue: no refreshments are allowed inside the Cathedral during the concert except bottled water, and photography is fine as long as you leave the flash off. If you need accessible seating for a wheelchair or have additional mobility needs, you'll need to contact the charity in advance to get that sorted.
