The church building was filled with the beautiful sounds of the Ratcliffe Chorale singing a variety of songs on Friday 3rd July 2026. In addition to a very new Requiem Mass, composed by the chorale's pianist, Paul Cox, a medley from Oliver and another from Les Miserables was sung. The hard working volunteer team prepped the Pims and Elderflower interval refreshments - partly donated by Tesco, before a raffle was drawn with a variety of generously donated prizes from George Walker, Melton Cinema, The Queen Victoria pub, Gamble and Hollis butchers and choir members. Our church improvement fund raising account was boosted by over a thousand pounds - which makes us a step closer to having a toilet and servery in the church. Thank you to all who helped to make this a success.
