It’s Christmas at the ASOKA animal rescue centre in Orihuela and to celebrate they are organising their 9th Annual Christmas Concert, STAR. “It’s not ex-pats singing all eleven verses of O Come All Ye Faithful!,” says Nick Moore the concert’s creator. “Star is an event with uplifting and emotional songs that reflect the passion with which ASOKA rescue over 800 animals a year.”

It is truly a special event and even more so this year after the tragedy of the September floods. The concert has projections, photos and videos especially created with wonderful images of their volunteer work plus videos that accompàny the songs of the happily homed cats and dogs that have been adopted across Europe in 2019.
