Soundbites

Wednesday Lunchtime Concerts

Soundbites, as its name suggests, combines a selection of soups, rolls, sandwiches, cakes and hot drinks available from 12:00 with a short (35-45 mins), unticketed, admission free concert at 1:00 pm.

Due to the current state of our finances, and the healthy state of our Choir Legacy Fund, proceeds are being used to support the work of the church for the moment. Concert series dates normally match school term-times.
