The British Police Symphony Orchestra (BPSO) will be appearing at the Garrick on April 12 at 7.30pm.

The event will have a Legends and Heroes theme and the orchestra will perform music including Rossini’s William Tell Overture and Sibelius’ Finlandia.

The Cadet scheme aims to strengthen links between the police and young people and promote good citizenship.

Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Arnold, who is organising the event, said: “Staffordshire Young Police Cadets are already working hard to support their local community.

“The service is all about giving advantages to young people – some from challenging backgrounds – who through a positive and vibrant programme can learn how to become responsible citizens.

“We want to sell 450 tickets to raise money for the Cadet charity and allow new units to be formed, uniforms to be provided, transport allocated and much more.

“Tickets will provide a great experience for friends and family as well as ensuring your hard-earned money goes to a great cause which is making a real difference locally.”

Tickets for the concert are on sale now at www.lichfieldgarrick.com.
