The evening will feature these globally renowned artists performing and making modern some of the nation’s favourite timeless Christmas carols.

Singer and songwriter Philippa Hanna, who has toured with artists such as Lionel Richie, Little Mix and Leona Lewis says, “Christmas is such a beautiful time to gather with your community and sing your favourite songs. Carols with Compassion gives us a chance to stretch that connection to our global community too. I’m really looking forward to the carol service and performing live in person.”
