A GRANT of £1,500 from Farnham Town Council is enabling Voices Together Community Choir to organise an evening of music and song this Sunday.

A Festival of Song is a collaboration of five local choirs which will see each choir sing individually and as a massed choir.

The Mayor of Farnham. Mike Hodge, enjoyed an early musical treat when he visited rehearsals to present Voices Together with the cheque.

Catherine Johnson from Voices Together Community Choir, said: “We couldn’t put on the show without this grant.

“The £1,500 has paid for the hire of the venue, lighting, sound and other costs so we very much appreciate the support from Farnham Town Council.

“We are also grateful to the Farnham Institute for giving us a grant which has gone towards the cost of buying music for all the choirs. Please support us and enjoy our show by coming to the performance in July.”

The event will take place this Sunday (July 2) at Princes Hall, Aldershot. Tickets are available by contacting the Princes Hall box at www.princeshall.com/bookingtickets.
