A benefit concert will be held in Newport later this month in aid of Welsh refugees and asylum seekers.

The event is due to take place at Stow Park Church Centre in Newport on 20 November, and aims to raise money for the Welsh Refugee Council (WRC) and Freedom from Torture (FFT).

The Welsh Refugee Council and Freedom from Torture have been helping refugees and asylum seekers for many years

The concert will feature a plethora of musical acts, including Frankie Armstrong and Newport based choir Cascapella.

This year will mark the third time the event has taken place since its inception in 2013. According to the WRC, previous years have been successful in raising money for the both charities.

FFT’s Maureen Gower said, “Past events have gone well in terms of attracting a large audience. We hope this year will be the same.”
