North Wales choir to perform in Ruthin for three charities

A North Wales choir is set to raise funds for three charities.

 

Côr NantClwyd, a choir with more than 100 members from Denbighshire, Conwy, and Flintshire, is preparing for a concert to support three good causes.

The concert, sponsored by Ifor Williams Trailers, will take place at the Ruthin Farmers Auction site at Parc Glasdir on Saturday, November 30.

The event, starting at 7.30pm, will feature live music from the choir, as well as performances from the nine-piece Llareggub Brass Band and Llansannan-based quartet Tew Tew Tennau.

 

The proceeds from the concert will be donated to Tŷ Gobaith/Hope House Children's Hospice, Maggie's Centre, and Dyfodol i'r Iaith.

Conductor Alaw Owen from Llanddoged near Llanrwst said: "It follows on a similar event we staged last year with the pop group Eden.

"It's a cross between a gig and a concert and we want everyone to feel as if they've had a good night out."

 

The choir, established just over two years ago, now has more than 100 members and regularly sees around 80 singers at their weekly rehearsals.

Ms Owen added: "We are a choir for those aged 30 plus and we encourage anyone keen to sing to come along."

She added: "The emphasis is definitely on coming together, socialising and enjoying the health and well-being benefits associated with singing."

 

Ifor Williams Trailers sales manager Lois Wynne said it was the first time the company had sponsored an event featuring Côr NantClwyd.

She said: "Côr NantClwyd are a relatively new choir and are based in the community.

"We sponsor many community events across the region because we believe it is important to do so.

"Côr NantClwyd are a relatively new choir and are based in the community.

"Our company was established 65 years ago and it is important we support them in the same way the community have supported us over the years.

 

"We are all looking forward to the concert at Ruthin on November 30 and I'm sure a substantial amount of money will be raised for the three very good causes."

Tickets for the event, which cost £17, are available from Siop Elfair in Ruthin and Siop Clwyd in Denbigh.

They are also available online at the Eventbrite website.

Doors open at 7.30pm and a licensed bar will be available.
