It is once again the time of year to limber up those vocal chords for the Christmas Carol Service for Printers, hosted by the BPIF, The Printing Charity, The Worshipful Company of Stationers and Newspaper Makers and Trade Union Unite.

The service will take place from 6pm on Tuesday 12 December 2017 at St Bride's Church, Fleet Street, in London. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren in 1672, St Bride's Church has long been associated with journalists and newspapers, thus making it a fitting location for our annual carol service.

The congregation and St Bride's choir will sing both traditional and modern versions of Christmas carols. There will also be a series of readings from the nativity story from industry representatives.

As a new addition, this year guests are invited to join us for festive drinks and nibbles next door in the Bridewell Hall at the St Bride Foundation, home of our London office, following the service from 7pm until 9pm.

The event will be a great opportunity for networking with others in the industry and of course marking the start of the festive period. Why not make an evening of it and bring along your loved ones?
