Additional information

I absolutely love to sing and to sing with others. I have been helping people to find their voice for over 10 years now. Everything is taught by ear with no fear of sheet music and it all comes together very quickly. I love to watch the reaction from people when they create harmony together in a room. It is such a great experience to teach a song to a group and then perform together to an audience.

Community singing really does what it says on the tin. My groups have made great friendships together through song, which is wonderful!

Current community groups and choirs:

  • Purbrook Community Choir
  • Southsea Songbirds
  • Singing for Pleasure U3A Waterlooville
  • Beating the Blues Eastney (co-led with Penny Rance)
