TEENAGE singer Nicholas McDonald is set to headline a charity Christmas concert to raise vital funds for the Beatson cancer fund.

The Wishaw youngster, known for his performances on X-Factor, will perform a handful of festive classics at the City Halls in Glasgow on Saturday, December 5.

He will be joined by a number of local acts including youths from the Bishopbriggs Academy school choir and the UK’s largest, most popular contemporary choir, The Glasgow Rock Choir.

The Westerton Male Voice Choir and Barrhead Burgh Brass Band will also help entertain guests.

Nicholas, 18, said: “Cancer affects so many people and I want to do what I can to give my support for this very worthwhile cause.”
