Exciting news from Leapgate Centre

Outdoor benches

 

Last year we supported a local charity, the Leapgate Activity Centre, which is based in Stourport  and provides support for children and adults with additional needs and primary learning difficulties.

We recently heard that they had spent the money we raised from our concert on some fabulous outside furniture for the centre, and we are delighted to share some photographs with you.

More information about the centre can be found on their website

Fabulous 30th anniversary concert

The Valentines held their annual concert at Kidderminster Town Hall on April 28th, celebrating their 30th anniversary. Their guests were the Kidderminster Male Choir who were responsible for bringing the first group of ladies together to form the choir, being originally made up of wives and girlfriends of the male choir.
