A GEORDIE Shore star will join Big Brother’s Anthony Hutton at a charity event in Darlington this month.

The annual Thank You for the Music fundraiser will return to the town on Sunday, December 18.

A showcase of Darlington’s singing talent, the event is now in its eighth year and has raised more than £28,000 for charity.

This year, it will feature visits from celebrity guests James Tinsdale from Geordie Shore and Mr Hutton, buffet, auction and raffle.

Organiser and vocal coach Viveca Bradshaw said: “The event has grown from strength to strength and it is the highlight of our year now.”

Thank You for the Music will be held at The Forum from 2pm until 5pm and from 6.30pm until 11pm. Tickets are £20 and can be booked by calling 07754967756.
