Away-Day Group - See Details Below
We meet ad-hoc. An email will be sent to all whenever there is a planned event. Various venues. We go on trips as and when arranged, sometimes by coach or if local, then meet you there. We may also be part of a local coach tour party (the price of hiring coaches is quite prohibitive). A sample of where we have been is:-Memorial Arboretum, Dana Prison, Viola Recycling & Cromford.
Away-Day to the International Eisteddfod, Llangollen, July 2025
Blessed is a world that sings
For nearly 80 years thousands of performers from all over the world have been descending on Llangollen to celebrate the joy of music, dance and cultural exchange.
An ideal place then for an Away-Day group eager for experience, excitement, fun and culture. With a bit of coffee and Bara Brith thrown in.
As our pictures show, all that was epitomised by the vibrant and colourful Parade of Nations with groups from many nations stopping to show off their singing and dancing skills.
Group members were also hugely impressed by the standard of the Junior Children’s Choir Competition - and profoundly moved by a winning performance of “I Lift My Eyes” from Lindley Junior School in London.
