The singers will be from Meadowbrook in Ryde - a day service for adults with learning difficulties one of the nominated charities of council chairman Councillor Heather Humby, pictured.

The children will be from Summerfield Primary School in Newport, where councillor, Andrew Mellow, is a governor.
