“I am so pleased I decided to join ‘Just Sing!’ choir, I look forward to every other Saturday knowing I am meeting with lovely friendly people from all walks of life who are all helpful and friendly. We sometimes have a laugh when Peter gets us doing silly things like moving around the room and trying to remember crazy words to warm up songs.. The atmosphere is very relaxed friendly and in good humour. It makes me feel good inside to know I am with people who want to have fun, take singing seriously and do a great job at it. The sound we create is absolutely awesome and so meaningful is just warms your heart, Thanks to Peter who brings the best out of a great crowd. Thank you ‘Just Sing!’ for just being there and giving me a purpose to enjoy singing and meeting with you all.” Ann

*I have always loved singing – I was part of a very small church band for many years but this disbanded and I came across ‘Just Sing’ ! Love it! Loads of different genres and styles- Peter , musical director , is incredibly upbeat and encouraging! And, we do fun stuff as well as learning to sing complicated pieces! No pressure- turn up when you can and pay when you can! Lovely atmosphere all round!” Alison C

“Since joining the choir earlier this year I have loved every minute. It is a delightful way to spend a Saturday morning. Everyone is friendly and the singing is lively and good fun.” Jean

“We originally joined to get to know people, after relocating into the Newark area in 2021. We didn’t know anyone, so it was a way to help us settle. We throughly enjoy ‘Just Sing’!. It has a lovely atmosphere, and more importantly we have been made to feel included and valued even though we are not fantastic singers!! ‘Just Sing!’ is a special group of people led by a talented and friendly choir leader, who we are happy to be part of.” Julie

“‘Just Sing!’ is not just for people who can sing. It’s for everyone. Whether you read music or not, whether you can hold a note or not. There is no judgement – we all figure it out together. I look forward to each session because there is something very special about singing together. Everyone is so welcoming and always happy to see you. Plus the coffee’s great (we have our very own fabulous Barista), the biscuits are top-notch and our choir director, Peter,  has us laughing from start to finish. It feels like all the best bits of being in a family.  And the songs are great too – the right amount of challenging, fun and sentimental ones. I just love it.” Christine G

“I started going to ‘JustSing!’ at the start of the year as I was new to the area and wanted to meet new people. Everyone is so friendly, welcoming and encouraging and I genuinely feel part of a community. It doesn’t matter what your age, background or skill level is, everyone is welcome a ‘JustSing!’. Beth

“We love being part of ‘Just Sing!’. It has helped us integrate into a new town and the varied genres of music have been both fun and challenging. Peter takes us from stumbling to soaring with an easy manner and the end product can be amazing. We are proud to be part of this talented group. No matter if we wake up out of sorts within minutes of the (sometimes hilarious) warm-ups our spirits rise and all is right with the world!” Christine and Nigel
