PROFESSIONALLY-trained opera singers will lead carol singing in Riddlesden on Sunday, December 18.

Locally-based soprano Louise Wayman and three members of the Opera North chorus will be at the Applegarth Club in Banks Lane, from around 4pm-6pm.

And the public is invited to join them.

Louise, who has over ten years' experience performing in operas and concerts globally, said: "This is an opportunity for people to come and sing old favourites and meet up with friends.

"We’re not a formal group but know each other through work and living locally. We’ve all worked across the UK and the world in concerts, operas and other events. It’s a chance for us to get together and sing carols – and the more of us there, the merrier!"
