THE society ends 2001 with its annual Christmas concert at St Stephen's.

There will be local soloists and a professional orchestra. The performance is being put on with the help of Redditch Arts Council.

The musical director and committee thanked those choir members who held raffles and bring-and-buy.

The choir breaks up on December 12, singing carols, and restarts on January 9 at 7.45pm at Alcester Street Methodist Church, Redditch.

New members welcome.
