After a short break, the Singing for Fun group started again in January 2025. We meet on the fourth Wednesday of each month in Swanland Village Hall in the upper room from 2.15pm. to 3.45pm.
There is a lift to the upper room for anyone who might find the short staircase difficult.
We have a break half way through for some refreshments and a chance to have a chat with friends.

The singing is led by Gwyn. He has a lot of experience of leading groups in schools, churches and care homes. We pride ourselves on having a good sing-song to lift our spirits and to enjoy one another’s company. You don’t have to be a good singer and you don’t have to read music. We aim to cater for all musical tastes. There is something for everyone. For example, we sing show tunes and everything from Frank Sinatra to ABBA, the Carpenters, the Beatles and much more reminiscent of music from our early years. We finish with our theme song ‘Thank you for the Music’ by ABBA.

Singing with friends is proven to be good for our health in many ways but we don’t always want to belong to a choir. Singing for Fun gives the opportunity for anyone and everyone to meet up just to enjoy a sing-song, mistakes and all, without preparing for a performance.
It is a privilege to be convenor of this group and I am most grateful to Delphine and Brenda, who led the group before Gwyn and me, for all the support they have given in helping us to take over our roles.
Please feel free to come along and share the time together. You can join in the singing or just sit back, listen and enjoy the company.
