On a visit to The Di**le School in Haslington to record them for a Tree of Lights in Sandbach they held their Christmas Concert. As one of the teachers was leaving at the end of term I recorded the concert for her and was so impressed we have decided to make this our final Carol Service on Hospital Radio Leighton. So if in Hospital please enjoy this wonderful concert.
(The Tree of Lights will be posted on Soundcloud later and lined to this site)
