Tuba team looking for help at St Paul's

If you are around St Paul's Cathedral in London today with a tuba, baritone, cimbasso, helicon, ophicleide, serpent, sousaphone for company then why not enjoy some carol playing for a great cause.

Tuba
  If you need to keep your carol lip in today, why not head to St Paul's Cathedral for a great cause?

If you are anywhere near St Paul's Cathedral in London today (Sunday 11th December) and you just happen to have your tuba, baritone, cimbasso, helicon, ophicleide, serpent, sousaphone or even Wagner tuba slung around your shoulder, then why not stop off and play some carols for a great cause.

Pop along

Just pop along to the St Paul's Churchyard from 12.45 until 2.30pm (in front of the great building) and you can help raise money for The Evelina Children's Hospital.

Bring a stand and some warm clothing…
