That tentative step outside my comfort zone has led to a tremendous amount of fun, new friendships and opportunities to be part of events like ChoirBLAST and other performances at theatres, churches, pubs and care homes. Emily arranges all the songs and has written a lot of them too. Her encouragement, energy and enthusiasm are infectious. I have gained confidence in my voice and I have improved, but more importantly I have met and sung with many lovely people.
