The event is taking place on Balm Road, outside the Arthington Court sheltered housing complex, from 5pm – when the nearby Hunslet Carr Primary School choir will be singing Christmas Carols. Refreshments will be served, there will be indoor and outdoor space, and anyone is welcome.

The event will be followed by the association’s Annual General Meeting, from 6.30pm at the Woodhouse Hill Community Centre across the road. For more info on the association and some of the year-round work they do locally, click here, here, or here.
