Charity

President Kate Andrews has chosen Dove House Hospice as her Charity for the year 2018-19.

“Having witnessed the care & tenderness in hospices, which rely so much on voluntary funding to

continue their work, this just seemed an opportunity to support them.” says Kate. All proceeds from a joint Concert with Kidderminster Valentines Ladies’ Choir on 26 July 2019 will be donated by Kate to this fine cause.

Chairman David Cross’ Charity Concert for the Choir year July 2019 – July 2020 will be St Mary’s Church, Beverley. For almost 900 years, St. Mary’s Church has stood magnificently as an architectural wonder among the great Parish Churches of England. With the passing of time, however, the stonework of this beautiful church is crumbling and we shall do our modest best towards its restitution. See more about the Church under “About Our Town”. The Concert will be a joint event with the Dalesmen MVC of Derby.

Patrons

We have a very loyal band of Patrons, about 80 at present, who are unstinting in their support for our Choir. We in turn provide them with their own free Patrons’ Concert each year. They are also invited to our Choir Annual Social Evening and Dinner .

Some Patrons also accompany us on trips out of the area to Joint Concerts with other Choirs. In June 2016, some went with us to the Lake District for joint concerts with Kendal and Barrow-in-Furness Male Voice Choirs as well as enjoying a very pleasant stay in the Cumbria Grand Hotel, Grange-over-Sands with stop-offs at Skipton and Richmond.

We consider our Patrons to be very much part of our Choir.

We ask our Patrons to contribute just £15 pa each to choir finances.
