A COMMUNITY carol concert at AFC Bournemouth’s Goldsands Stadium raised nearly £1,000 for the Salvation Army and BCHA.
Last Tuesday’s concert raised £827.15 – double the amount raised in 2012.
AFC Bournemouth players and management were joined by the Bournemouth Male Voice Choir and the Winton Salvation Army Band for the annual festive event.
Lorna Trent, BCHA’s fundraising manager, said: “Singing alongside the Cherries and so many of the public was amazing and the generosity was far more than we expected.
“Thank you to everyone who sang along and supported us even though it was pretty cold.”
