At the last rehearsal before their summer break, Hampshire and Surrey Hills Men’s Choir presented the donations from their summer concert to representatives of the local charity, Camberley Care. 

Choir Chairman, Peter Viveash presented donations of over £800 with Gift Aid to Camberley Care Chairman, Tony Bovenkamp, and fundraising Trustee Linda Christopher. 

The concert, at the end of June, was at High Cross in Camberley and was the first Summer Concert conducted by Musical Director Philip Viveash-Brainch and assisted by Deputy Conductor James Harrison, with accompanist Charlotte Hobbs.

Making the donation Peter Viveash said “The service that Camberley Care has been providing for 50 years is a vital resource for those in the area who are elderly or not so mobile, so we are very happy to be able to support them”.  In response, Tony Bovenkamp explained that Camberley Care is always under pressure to find extra funding and extra volunteers. This donation will make a real difference to the lives of the elderly and vulnerable in the area and on their behalf he expressed his gratitude to everyone involved.
