A CHARITY concert will take place in Goring village hall tomorrow (Saturday) from 5pm to 10pm, in aid of Médecins Sans Frontières.

The concert has been organised by William Paddick, 17, a musician who has been affected by the humanitarian crises.

He persuaded five local indie bands, Struggles End, Pyjama, Over Tone, Percstreet and MIDAS, to give their time.

Médecins Sans Frontières brings medical humanitarian assistance to victims of conflict, natural disasters, epidemics or healthcare exclusion.

Tickets cost £7.50 from tinyurl.com/3y55ebbe
