A group of Rossendale residents is starting up a community choir. This is going to be available for anyone above the age of 18 who wants to join together with like-minded people with a passion to sing.

The purpose of the choir is not predominantly to perform, but for the sheer joy of singing.

The choir will meet on the second and fourth Thursday of every month from 7.30pm to 9.00pm at Haslingden Primary School, starting on 14th January 2010. Contact; www.rossendalecommunitychoir.btik.com email; rossendalecommunitychoir@yahoo.co.uk
