A GALA evening is being held on Friday at Kidderminster Town Hall in aid of Kemp Hospice.

The show features the Gentlemen Songsters Male Voice choir, The Sirocco ‘60s band, Dudley All Stars Brass Band and pupils of Upper Arley CE First School.

The event, which starts at 7.45pm, has been organised by Susan Langley in memory of her parents, Albert and Doris Tinkler.

She said: “Having just completed the dress rehearsal it will be a brilliant show and something we do not have very often in Kidderminster.

“As well as raising much-needed funds for the hospice I wanted to help raise its profile too.”

Tickets are available from Kemp on 01562 861217, Upper Arley CE First School on 01299 861260 or the town hall on 01562 732158.
