Dust off your singing voice – we are putting together a scratch-choir for our Coronation Hymns of Praise

in 2022 we had three opportunities to lead the singing at St. Catherine’s – we hope that this year you would once again like to join together with us to enjoy the gift of music and share it with those who attend our Coronation Songs of Praise on Sunday 7th May @17:00

Music will be provided in advance and there will be a run through rehearsal before the event.
