We are delighted to announce that this year’s Carols by Candlelight will take place on Tuesday 2 December. Our fantastically festive evening will be returning to Reading Town Hall from 6pm. Notes that we will be opening the doors at 5pm for you to grab a drink, buy any raffle tickets and take your seats.

This heartwarmingly festive event will be hosted by Launchpad patron and TV presenter Matt Allwright.

We’ve invited brilliant female barbershop quartet The Tonyx and the fabulous youth choir, Universal Voices to perform a selection of Christmas classics for you and you'll also hear some festive readings and inspiring stories about Launchpad’s work with people in housing crisis.

Every ticket sale for this unmissable evening will help Launchpad continue to provide homes for Reading’s most vulnerable this winter. Launchpad’s supported housing offers warm, clean, and safe accommodation for over 111 people in need – which are a lifeline to the many individuals, couples, and families at risk of, or who have already lost their homes.
