Mayor’s Foreword As Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey, I would like to welcome you all to this year’s Christmas Carol Concert.

This concert is an important event in our calendar and I am delighted you have taken time out at this busy period to come along and enjoy the Youth Concert Band from the Education Authority, North Eastern Region, as they add musical magic to the angelic voices of children from throughout the Borough.

This is a wonderful opportunity for our community to join together for a seasonal celebration, to spread some festive spirit and capture the true meaning of Christmas through readings and song.

At the end of the concert there will be a collection to support my chosen charities for the year: ABF The Soldier’s Charity, Autism NI and Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children. These organisations are close to my heart and all monies raised today will help to support the work of these charities within the local community.

I hope you enjoy today’s festivities and may I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year.

COUNCILLOR THOMAS HOGG
