Great Elm, Frome BA11 3NY

Jackdaws Songbirds are a friendly, informal choir who meet weekly during term time to sing together in a relaxed environment. There are three groups to suit all! These groups are part of the Jackdaws Music Education Trust.
There are no auditions, and no previous singing or music experience is required. Songs are taught by ear. Our aim is to enjoy singing together in harmony and to explore different types of music: traditional, modern and songs from other countries. We occasionally get all three groups together for informal performances in the local area.

The groups meet in Frome:

Monday Afternoon: 1.30 – 2.45pm at Rise, Whittox Lane, Frome.
You are most welcome to bring your babies, pre-schoolers and toddlers to the Monday session! We sing for an hour, parents and carers are welcome to bring toys for the toddlers to play with. We don’t expect pre-schoolers to be quiet, and we don’t expect full attention from parents! In a typical session, children may play on their own for a bit, require some attention for a bit, and may even listen in now and then. At 2.30pm the toys are cleared away and we sing a few songs with the children.

Tuesday Teatime: 5p– 6.30pm at Trinity Church Hall, Trinity Street, Frome. All ages from 13 years are welcome.

Wednesday Evening: 7.30 – 9.00pm at Selwood Academy, Berkley Road, Frome. All ages from 16 years are welcome.

Monday 1.30 - 2.30pm
Tuesday 5 - 6.30pm
Wednesday 7.30 - 9pm

The Old Library, 10 Lower Bore Street, Bodmin, PL31 2JX

This is a safe space for singers and those who do not consider themselves as singers to find their voice and sing with others. Songs are generally short but rewarding to sing together. There is a cafe in the Old Library where drinks and snacks can be purchased mid-session.
Cost – £6 a session.

Alternate Tuesdays 10am - 12pm. Please check Facebook events for confirmation of dates

Green Door Centre, Bosham, Chichester, PO18 8PJ

A friendly and inclusive daytime singing group taking place at the beautiful Green Door Centre, where we make full use of the space by singing outside in the gorgeous gardens when weather permits. The emphasis is on having fun, playing and connecting with other lovely people through musical games and songs. By doing this we feel better physically, mentally and more able to cope with whatever life throws at us.

Sessions are led by experienced choir director and singing for health practitioner-researcher Ruth Routledge.

Free taster sessions, then £8/session if you buy a block (around 6 sessions) or £10 drop-in. Concessions available – please ask.

Any questions please contact me, Ruth: reroutledge@gmail.com
