Nelson's Journey, based in Norfolk, supports children and young people up to their 18th birthday who have experienced the death of a significant person in their life.

Cakes and donated food items from the concert were also given to St Matins Housing Trust which helps Norwich's homeless population.

The annual festive event at Drayton Village Hall featured music from Norwich City Concert Band and the Fine City Chorus.

Before the carols, presentations were made to Drayton Village Hall, Priscilla Bacon Norfolk Hospice Care and St Margaret's Church Busy Bee Club who all received £300.
