Night 3 saw the event go indoors for the first time this year, and into the Phyllis Court Ballroom via the Finlay Suite where they were met with refreshments courtesy of our kind hosts. Grey Matters Consultancy were kindly partnering and the night served as a fundraiser for Berkshire MS Therapy. After a welcome from Richard Rodway, Sam Harper from the charity engaged the audience with details of the work the charity does. The audience were then beckoned to take their seats for a fun festive performance by the orchestra. As well as some superb renditions of The Christmas Song and Santa Clause is coming to town, amongst others, equipped with some song sheets, the audience were invited to sing along to Hark The Herald Angels Sing and Silent Night. Caroline Romero of Grey Matters Consultancy gave thanks at the end of the performance before Richard Rodway presided over the raffle. The highlight being the special moment when a kind lady put up for auction a cuddly reindeer that she had won, generating more money in the process thanks to winning bidder Tony Horsfall, of the Phyllis Court Singers who performed at Living Advent 2016.
