Event details
The Music Department at the University of Southampton welcomes you to their annual Christmas concert, featuring festive performances by staff and students. Arranged by final-year undergraduates, today's event will include carol singing and Christmas songs and music performed by some of the outstanding young musicians currently studying Music at the University.
Continuing the Music Department's recent collaboration with Mencap Southampton's Café Down the Lane, we are delighted to welcome their members to sell homemade baked goods and Christmas cards as part of our Christmas Concert event. You will find them displaying café activities and selling goods in the foyer of Turner Sims from 12:30pm and also directly after the concert. Please note payment is by cash only. There will be boxes for donations, which Mencap Southampton are always grateful to receive.
Café Down the Lane has been set up to help people with learning disabilities to learn vital work-place skills in a “real-world” environment. It is reasonably priced and welcomes regular patrons and new visitors through its doors on Wednesday lunchtimes. Southampton Mencap is found at 187a Portswood Road, located behind Coffee #1 on Portswood High Street.
