The Wells Good Afternoon Choir have chosen to split their fundraising throughout 2020-2022 between
Wells Community First Responder Group (75%) and Wells in Bloom (25%) |

Our picture above shows the Wells GAC performing at their annual Christmas Carol Concert in December 2021. This was their first concert in 2 years since the Covid pandemic forced them to stop. At the end of the concert a retiring collection was taken for their chosen charities and they hope by the end of 2022 to have raised a wonderful sum.
The Wells Good Afternoon Choir rehearses EVERY Tuesday afternoon from 2-4pm at at St Thomas Church - singing for fun, everyone welcome! Please come along and meet our Musical Director, Grenville Jones and Accompanist, Sheila Ross.
There is NO charge for attending the first rehearsal and membership information is available. Choir rehearsals are in 4 terms of 10 weeks and members pay £50 per term - this covers all room and piano hire, music, admin and musician fees. You do not need to join at the start of a term, you can simply come along to any rehearsal and pick up a members form should you wish to join the choir - your fee will then be worked out for the remainder of that term.
Grenville Jones is one of the most recognised and experienced choir leaders in the UK. His celebrated Bath Male Choir hit the headlines on the BBC’s Last Choir Standing show and he is also the founder of The Golden-Oldies Charity. He has been interviewed on radio and TV across the world. There are NO AUDITIONS and everyone is welcome.
Many of the people in our other Good Afternoon Choirs have never sung in a choir before. Over 1,000 people now sing with us in the Afternoons!

Hear the Wells Good Afternoon Choir and conductor Grenville Jones performing 'Singing in the Rain' on Wells Cathedral Green in May 2022. It was a rather wet afternoon so the song was quite apt for the occasion!
