HELPING HANDS AND VOICES ...

In 'male voice choir' terms, we are still new, at just nine years old...!  Compare with our hosts this weekend, the Radcliffe-on-Trent Male Voice Choir - formed in 1983 - and 'the oldest boy band in the world', the Fron (Côr Meibion Froncysyllte, or Froncysyllte Male Voice Choir), which was formed to take part in the 1947 Eisteddfod.

So, we're trying to do good in different ways, but are deeply aware that we still have plenty to learn about how powerful our voices are in bringing about change ...!

It's a great joy then not only to be meeting up with our singing chums from Radcliffe-on-Trent on Saturday, but also that our joint concert will benefit the ongoing community project central to the objectives of our ChristChurch Grantham venue (pictured opposite).

Back in Norwich, we show again our support for a Charity of the Year, and for 2019, our choice is the Support Group for Norwich's Priscilla Bacon Lodge Hospice.  While the hospice continues its valuable work, the support group, an independent body of volunteers, steps in to provide the additional items and extras to do 'what it says on the tin', making things just a little easier for patients and their families when they need it most.   Further information about the Priscilla Bacon Support Group is on their website at: https://supportingpbl.org.uk/ and your kind generosity at our concerts through the year in the Group's Bucket Collections and by supporting our concert raffles with its 50/50 proceeds share, would be greatly appreciated and most welcomed.

Our voices really can be the 'helping hands' that bring about change!
