This Christmas, we are hosting a Reverse Grotto at Moseley Old Hall as part of our Lord of Misrule Christmas theme. All donations can be dropped off at Moseley Old Hall and these will then be donated on to Langer Aid.

Traditionally in the 17th century, local people would bring gifts to the Lord of Misrule in order to be able to take part in his Christmas merriment.
