A COMPETITION to find the best choir in the county has been launched by a city charity.

Breast Cancer Haven in St Owen Street, Hereford is once again running its Last Choir Standing competition.

It was last held in 2012 and the Hereford Soul Choir took first place under the baton of conductor, Jenny Frost.

The charity is now looking for choirs to enter the competition: a choir can comprise of any number of members.

Each choir will be asked to perform two songs of their choice on stage and receive feedback and adjudication from a panel of judges.

There will be trophies for the winners.

There is only room for 12 choirs in the competition so get your entries in as soon as possible by emailing rose.farrington@breastcancerhaven.org.uk or calling 01432 361 051.
