  • Résumé

  • It's the final episode of the season and this week host Clare Reeves is celebrating the culmination of Folkestone's Living Advent Calendar, spotlighting musical acts, charity initiatives, and the vibrant community spirit.

    We hear from members of Touchbase Care as they prepare for their door opening, as well as performances from Shoo Shoo Baby, and Half A String.

    There's community spirit as Randolph Matthews collaborates with migrant help to perform behind the first out-of-town door, and St Mary's and St Eanswyth's Church prepare to host the Christmas Eve door.

    Emotions run high as we come towards the end of the event and Clare catches up with Sadie, Sue and Marin from Jim Jam Arts and Lady Christmas as they enter the finla days of this year's event.

    In this finale, we honor the creativity, charity, and spirit of the Folkestone community that's been so vividly displayed throughout the Living Advent Calendar.
