Encore Choir in harmony with New Forest Basics Bank

At this time of year Encore Choir would normally be busy rehearsing for concerts for charitable organisations and local care homes. Sadly they are unable to meet or perform due to the pandemic. 

This year John Reid their musical Director who lives in Milford on Sea, as do many members, has kept them challenged with a few online recordings, the latest of which ‘We Need a Little Christmas’ - all to keep the choir's voices in shape…….and to create a little Christmas cheer. 

To continue the community theme, Encore choir members have been donating bags of basic foods and Christmas goodies, in order to produce Seasonal Hampers for the New Forest Basics Bank based in Lymington and also covering Milford on Sea. You won’t be surprised to hear that the Basics Bank has had to expand its operation during these difficult times, as food poverty is a growing and a complex area to address. Last week the bank assisted over 80 households in our area. 


Encore Choir is a mixed voiced choir with 60 members, who enjoy singing a wide variety of styles of music. They meet on a Monday evening in Lymington and hope to return to rehearsals early Spring or earlier if it is safe to do so. All voice parts are welcome.
