People in and around Bridgwater are invited to come together for a huge sing-along this month.

The Big Sing, part of the Sound of the Streets Day on Bridgwater High Street, takes place on October 12.

It will start at 10am with a solo saxophonist, followed by the Bristol samba band Ilu Axe, street brass, drumming groups, and youth bands.

The Big Sing will happen at around 1.20pm.

It will be led by veteran street musician Tim Hill and his band Tongues of Fire.

Mr Hill said: "This is a great chance for us to come together and sing some great songs we all know and love, along with a wonderful band.

"Song sheets will be provided, but lots of people will know the words."

The Sound of the Streets is an education charity based in Somerset that runs free outdoor participatory events, festivals, along with education projects for children and young people.

The Big Sing is one of their most successful events, having already taken place in Highbridge and Burnham, as well as in Taunton.

It is funded by the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government Town Deal.
