The Friends of St Nicholas will be hosting a fundraising concert at the church featuring the Barnes Big Band.

The 16 piece combo will be playing music by jazz legends such as Quincy Jones, Francy Boland, Sammy Nestico and Lennie Niehaus plus originals composed specially by Eddie Harvey, Kenny Woodman and Steve Darlington.

The event takes place on Friday 22 March with doors and a bar open at 7pm with the music due to start at 7.30pm.

Tickets cost £12 or £6 for under 25s and can be purchased on the door.

The purpose of the Friends of St Nicholas Church is the repair and maintenance of the building and churchyard, and its fixtures, fittings, and contents. The group raises funds from Friends’ subscriptions, and from events in the church and elsewhere. New members are always welcome. Click here for information on how to join.

We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.
