Gala Charity Concert – Music from the Musicals
3pm, Sunday 28 June 2026
Witham Public Hall
There are good number of WAOS members who sing with Witham Singers, and who are involved with the Gala Charity Concert that is being held in tribute to Louis Hackett, Tracey’s son. All profits from the show will go to Great Ormond Street. The concert features Hedingham Singers, Witham Singers and Braintree Male Voice Choir, supported by a live band and soloists. It would be good to see you there helping to raise money for a great cause.
