RESIDENTS and groups in Partick and the West End are being given the opportunity to take part in Sing While You Shop.

The carol-singing event will be hosted at Sainsbury's Partick on Saturday, December 14 and Sunday, December 15.

Sainsbury's Partick are encouraging residents, including professional choirs, singing families, friends and regional groups including schools, charities, community clubs and hospices to spread the festive cheer.

Carol singers will have the option to raise funds for the store's local charity partner Radio Lollipop - or a local charity of their choice.

Sainsbury's Partick Store Manager, Debbie Barnes said: "Everyone from the area is welcome to apply and we're delighted to offer our customers the chance to help us spread the festivities in-store."
