Westfield

Westfield Community Choir: This starts on Monday 23July from 7-8 pm in the church, and everyone is welcome. Choir mistress Laura and Min will be there from about 6.30pm, so if you want to arrive early and say hello that would be great. Please bring along a drink for yourself. The cost will be £3 adult and £2 child. Laura will get everyone singing in rounds for the first session and will can progress from there. The choir will run for 3 weeks then will have a break for 2 weeks and start again after that. The choir could really do with a voluntary pianist, so if you know of anyone, please beg them to help.
