Mercian Educational Trust Welcomes WEG as Sponsor of Christmas Carol Concert
Local business support is helping create a special Christmas experience for 180 pupils at Great Malvern Priory.
Mercian Educational Trust is delighted to welcome WEG as a sponsor of this year’s Christmas Carol Concert, helping bring together around 180 pupils from across the Trust for a memorable festive celebration at the magnificent Great Malvern Priory.
The concert will be a special opportunity for pupils to come together through music, celebrate their achievements and create lasting memories in an extraordinary setting.
For our pupils, the event represents much more than a Christmas performance. Taking part in shared experiences like this can help build confidence, support wellbeing, develop resilience and foster a strong sense of belonging.
At Mercian Educational Trust, we believe every child should have the opportunity to take part in meaningful experiences that enrich their education and help them thrive. That is why parents and carers will be able to attend the concert free of charge, ensuring families can share in this special occasion together.
Support from local businesses such as WEG plays an important role in making this possible. We are incredibly grateful to WEG for partnering with us and helping create an opportunity that will mean so much to our pupils and their families.
Could your business help make Christmas special?
We are still looking for local businesses to join us in supporting the concert, with a small number of sponsorship opportunities remaining, starting at £250.
By becoming a sponsor, businesses can support young people in their local community while helping make this special event possible.
We would love to hear from organisations that share our commitment to creating positive opportunities for children and young people.
Interested in becoming a sponsor? Contact our team at media@metacademies.org.uk to find out more about the available opportunities.
A huge thank you once again to WEG for supporting Mercian Educational Trust and helping us create something special this Christmas.
Together, we can make a lasting difference — one opportunity, one experience and one young person at a time.
