The Clover Singing Club, a not-for-profit singing social club based in Harpenden, was delighted to host an event to mark the donation of £1,300 to its favourite charities, Herts Musical Memories and the Hopper Bus. The choir of retired older women raises the money by singing at local community events and from sharing-out excess club funds. During the event, which was held at the Harpenden Trust, the choir sang their favourite pop and folk songs including Beauty and the Beast, You Raise Me Up and Greensleeves, and invited the audience to sing along with them to Que Sera, Sera and Let’s Go Fly a Kite.
Steve Pryor, Chairman of the Harpenden Trust’s Community Fund, presented the cheques to the charities.
Charlotte Vickerstaff, the Clover Singing Club’s Director of Music, said,”We were set up with a grant from the Community Fund, so it’s wonderful that we are able to help others now."
The club, which sings, socialises and goes on trips together, has nearly 90 members and accepts new members throughout the year. There are no auditions and all abilities are welcome. www.cloversingingclub.com
