Mayor’s charity concert to support local causes

Barnstaple’s Mayor, Janet Coates, is inviting the community to an exciting evening of live music at the Mayor’s Charity Concert on Friday, 21 February at 7pm. 

The event will be held at the Queen’s Theatre in Barnstaple, and proceeds will benefit two local causes: Clarity, a mental health charity, and Special Olympics North Devon, which support young people with an intellectual impairment.

The evening’s performances will include the Barnstaple Ladies Choir, as well as guest artists Andrew Jeffery, Emma Hewetson, and Harmony4.

In addition, there will be a special performance by the Bluecoat School Choir. A highlight of the event will be a performance by Chapman Shum, a talented young piano virtuoso from London.

Mayor Coates told the Gazette: “I am delighted that Barnstaple Ladies Choir will be hosting this concert in aid of my mayoral charities. I hope that many people will come along and will enjoy a varied and enjoyable evening of musical entertainment.”

Tickets for the concert are priced at £13 for adults and £8 for those under 16, with an additional £2 Theatre Levy.

All ticket sales will directly benefit Clarity and Special Olympics North Devon, making it a fantastic way to enjoy a memorable night while supporting two important causes within the local community.

The Mayor’s Charity Concert is expected to be a powerful and inspiring evening, celebrating local talent and raising vital funds for those in need.
