JULIA’S House’s beloved annual Christmas carol evening will be held in Dorchester for the first time this year. 

Past events have always been held in Wimborne, Poole and Christchurch, but bosses at the Corfe Mullen-based hospice have changed it up this year. 

Taking place on Tuesday, December 3 at 7pm, the festive event will be held at St Mary’s Church in Edward Road. 

The Julia’s House Choir will be there to perform their own special renditions of traditional Christmas carols during the evening. 

Tickets are now available to book on the charity’s website, with delicious mince pies and mulled wine included. 

Fundraiser Sarah Agnew said: “We’re thrilled to be hosting our Christmas Carols evening for the first time in Dorchester and St. Mary’s Church will be the most magnificent setting for this special event. 

“We’re looking forward to celebrating with the community this Christmas time and raising vital funds to support our care for local families. 

“We invite everyone to come along and get into the festive spirit by singing their favourite carols and enjoying wonderful performances from local choirs.”
