They organised over 4,000 trips and visits last year and demand for their services is ever-increasing. Christine Leach, Chair of the Trustees of C&AGN, said…
“I am delighted that New Egham Singers have chosen Chertsey & Addlestone Good Neighbours as their nominated charity and we are very excited to be working alongside them this year”.
The event will start at 7.30pm and New Egham Singers will showcase a variety of music from much-loved and well-known screen and stage shows including La La Land, Joseph, Les Misérables, The Rocky Horror Show, and many more. It promises to be a thoroughly entertaining evening – one not to miss! And all profits from the concert will go to Chertsey & Addlestone Good Neighbours.
