Following a busy Christmas season with concerts that raised £1,500 for a Romanian charity and a retiring collection at St John’s Church Timsbury, comes news that the choir’s ‘20 men needed campaign’ in conjunction with Prostate Cancer UK eventually raised a total of £4,659.
Prostate Cancer UK aim to save and enrich the lives of men with a cancer which affects around one in eight men.
Most of the 18 new members from the campaign have re-joined rehearsals held every Monday at 7:30 to 9:30pm at Saint Mary’s School Timsbury, for what is expected to be another busy spring/summer season with five concerts currently planned.
