Benefice choir:​

Rehearsals are held at least once a month on a Monday, at 7pm.  Choir members are very good at lift sharing, so don't let the location of rehearsals put you off!

Our Organist Frances Maksinski is the first point of contact for the choir, as well as for other music questions.  For more information please email her at [email protected]

 New singers are always very welcome.  Help will be given should you struggle with reading music.  We sing for the glory of God, and not for our own importance, so don't worry if you are concerned about your singing abilities!
