The Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust Choir are assembled outside 10 Downing Street earlier this afternoon. The sun has set, and the Choir are huddled together - some in Santa hats or other festive headgear – singing a carol from their songbooks, lit by lantern light. Their musical director stands facing them and away from the camera. The iconic Number 10 door is on the left of the image with a large Christmas wreath on it.
The Christmas decorations are going up at 10 Downing Street today, and who better to invite to share some cheer and festive song than our own LGT NHS Choir!
Making all of #TeamLGT proud as always – thanks for the lovely invitation and an early Merry Christmas to the Choir and all our followers! 💡🎄💡
