Our Singing Workshop, held on Sat, 11th Sept 2010 in Hassocks United Reformed Church, was a huge success and much enjoyed by all.
The music included a Beatles' song, some spirituals and the Hallelujah Chorus and there was plenty of opportunity for chatting in the breaks throughout the course of the day. The event was rounded off with a mini-concert to showcase the day's efforts.
