Introduction to Our Spirit of Christmas Concert by Matthew Kelly
Welcome from Matthew Kelly
Dear Friends,
We’ve all deeply missed our Spirit of Christmas carol concert, and this year, much like the last one, has been full of challenges for all of us.
We’re pleased to announce, following the success of last year’s virtual event, we’ll be once again presenting a Christmas celebration for you to watch all from the comfort and safety of your own sofa, complete with our wonderful actors and musicians who provide their support every year.
I’m so proud to be a part of Spirit of Christmas, and to be the President of NeuroMuscular Centre, the incredible charity which supports hundreds of people and their families affected by neuromuscular conditions in your area.
Please support our exciting Virtual Spirit of Christmas carol concert and our wonderful charity which helps so many every year.
With love and thanks,
Matthew Kelly
President of NeuroMuscular Centre
