There’s a benefit concert for Ukraine at St Richard’s Hall in Swallowfield Road on Saturday 12th November. All are welcome to the event, which is being held by the Charlton Central Residents’ Association. SARAH HORNSEY explains more…
To show support and solidarity with Ukraine, Charlton Central Residents’ Association are pleased to be hosting an evening benefit concert for those whose lives are being disrupted by the war in Ukraine.
We have a great line-up of local talent which includes our very own CCRA Singers; our instrumental group SE7; Hope Augustus, a wonderful jazz singer who plays with SE7 at Cattaleya on Charlton Church Lane; and the Flaming Sambucas, a blues/rock band.
If that was not enough we also have local resident harpist Gabriella Dall’Olio who will be joined by Clare Hoffman, a violinist. We also have two Ukrainian sisters who play the harp, Catherine and Elizabeth Rahjans as well as Owen Morgan, a singer, and Claude Deppa, a trumpeter. There may be other special guests and readings on the night.
Space is limited so arrive early to avoid disappointment, doors will open at 7.00pm. The concert will start promptly at 7.30pm. Entry is free – but we hope everyone attending will contribute to a collection.

The concert is at St Richard’s Hall, Swallowfield Road, SE7 7NR on Saturday 12 November. For more information visit the CCRA website.
