Traditional carol service at St Richard's, Peel Hall

A traditional carol service by candlelight at St Richard of Chichester on Peel Hall Road, Wythenshawe, on the Sunday before Christmas. Expect Bible readings and plenty of chances to sing the favourite carols, accompanied on the organ. It starts at 5pm and lasts about an hour, so it suits families with children who can manage an early-evening service. It is free and there's no need to book. The church also holds a Christmas morning communion at 9.30am.
