The Village Consort
Itself a registered charity, Sleaford Choral Society has a history of working on fund-raising projects with small local community groups. Originally organised on an ad hoc basis and conducted by Neville McFarlane, our activities have been formalised over the last few years under the name The Village Consort. This comprises members of the Choral Society – but by no means the full choir – who get together under the baton of Deputy Conductor, Alwyn Kirk, to provide light-hearted summer
concerts in venues around Sleaford.
If we can find free or low-cost rehearsal space, we offer a programme of summer music at no charge to the community group/organisation, thus allowing them to raise maximum income from minimum outlay. Since summer 2007, we have contributed to church fund-raising totalling over £5000 in this way.
