The updated carol, the 12 Days of Wellmas, will be performed by a choir comprised of people from organisations across Luton that provide or receive help and support. They will be singing at The Mall Luton on Friday, December 13, from 12pm till 1pm.

Shoppers will be encouraged to sing along and then talk to representatives from the different organisations involved to find out about how they can look after themselves and others over the festive period.

Twelve Days of Wellmas has been penned to remind people of the need to look after both their physical and mental wellbeing during the Christmas and New Year period, which can be difficult for many people.
