Members of an Oxfordshire choir dressed up for Red Nose Day this week raising £760 for charity.
Abingdon, Didcot, Oxford, Wantage and Witney rock choirs hosted a ‘bottle tombola’ in their weekly choir session in support of Comic Relief 2023.
Every member brought in a bottle to contribute to the tombola, and they had a great variety on offer.
