Robyn Davies, musical director of Hadley and District Orpheus Male Voice Choir, said: "This year we've been supporting The Bridge School, a school for special needs children which is part of the Hadley Learning Community.

"We've been in a few times this year and sung with them and had an absolutely fantastic time with the children. We're going in again on November 27 at 10am. We do a small concert where they bring the children in, and the children will perform - it is an opportunity for the children to perform.

"We're also supporting the school because they need some new musical instruments. We will be giving a donation from the choir from fundraising we have done this year to support the music department with some instruments."

The choir will also be involved in a Rotary Club of The Wrekin event on Sunday, December 3, when the choir will lead traditional Christmas music and readings.

It starts at 4pm and entry is free. The venue is Hadley Methodist Church, with hot drinks and mince pies served afterwards.
