Pembroke Farmers Club is proud to be organising a ‘Summer Charity Concert’ in aid of Prostate Cymru and Pancreatic Cancer UK which will be held in Tenby.

The concert will be held at St Mary's Church on May 16 at 7pm.

The Club lost a long standing friend to pancreatic cancer last year and aim to raise money for this charity in his memory. With over 200 male members of the club they felt that Prostate Cymru UK was a charity that should be supported also.

The Club is delighted that they have managed to secure a visiting Irish Choir called The Tredagh Singers from Drogheda to perform at the concert.

This mixed choir will perform along with Pembroke and District Male Voice choir and The Serendipity Ladies Choir from Narberth.

Through the years the choir has competed successfully in choral competitions in Ireland, the UK and further afield and won at many Choral Festivals in the past.

The Tredagh Singers currently have 55 members who enjoy singing a wide repertoire ranging from medieval polyphony to modern compositions, traditional melodies and popular songs

The Tredagh Singers currently have 55 members who enjoy singing a wide repertoire ranging from medieval polyphony to modern compositions, traditional melodies and popular songs, under the direction of Geraldine Doggett, a well known choir director and musician.

Pembroke and District Male Voice Choir has been an ever present part of the musical and social scene in Pembrokeshire for over 72 years.

Since their beginning in 1953 the choir has performed at countless venues - chapels, churches, village halls, Folly Farm and on larger stages such as with the Welsh Association of Male Voice Choirs gathering at the Royal Albert Hall in London on several occasions.

Members have toured in the UK, Ireland and Germany and have formed enduring connections with other choirs. The choir takes pride in supporting many worthy causes raising many thousands of pounds over the years. The Choir never charges for performing.

Since 2021 the choir has been under the admirable guidance of Juliet Rossiter who combined a teaching career with a lifetime's connection to choirs, three of which she directs. Also most welcome is the newly joined accompanist, the Rev William Lambert.

William, himself a second tenor, was recently appointed as priest in charge for the Angle Peninsula under the South Pembrokeshire LMA. William has fitted perfectly in with the Musical team.

These choirs will be joined by The Serendipity Ladies Choir which was formed 9 years ago by musical director Juliet Rossiter and now boasts 50 members who practice on Monday nights at the Bloomfield Centre. They sing a variety of melodies.

Mr Brian Harries will be the compere for the evening. Brian is the chairman of the Pembrokeshire Branch of Prostate Cymru.

All proceeds will be divided equally between the two charities. Please try and support these worthy charities.
