THE ANNUAL Christmas Charity Show at Blunsdon House Hotel racks up its 20th anniversary next month.
The show, in aid of the Bristol Royal Hospital for Sick Children, has been playing to packed audiences for the last 19 years, and organiser John Holmes is hoping for another bumper turnout in 2001.
The veteran fundraiser, 67, wants to buy the hospital a £25,000 life support machine.
The Blunsdon House Christmas show is a dance and cabaret evening, featuring singers Beryl Jones and Bob Maskell, pianist John Davies, and the Tanwood Dancers.
Tickets, costing £6 each, are available from John Holmes Music in Faringdon Road, and the show starts at 7.30pm on Sunday, December 2.
Mr Holmes is also organising a Christmas concert at the Savoy's Upper Room in aid of the hospital, featuring Beryl Jones, big band singer Ken Jell, and Lynn Hawkins of the Kentwood singing group.
Also appearing at the concert, at 7.30pm on Thursday, December 13, are the Swindon Citadel Salvation Army Band and Songsters, who will be performing carols and show tunes, and the Tanwood Dancers.
Tickets cost £6 each.
