2011:
At the beginning of June, we hosted a singing group from the Leicestershire branch of Singing For Fun, which saw us - and heard us - joining together in concert in aid of the Chernobyl Children's Lifeline (Letterston Memorial Hall at 730 pm). Thanks to the generosity of audience and singers, we raised £812.30 for this most deserving cause.
This summer we performed at the Fishguard Civic Week singing on the Parrog and also entertained 'the French' at the Bay Hotel, as well as singing to the Friday Friendship Club in the Market Hall.
A big thank you to the singers - in Leicestershire and Pembrokeshire - who participated in Classic FM's 123 sing! We raised £200 for Music Makers, Classic FM's charity (music and music therapy for disadvantaged children). Well done everyone
