02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

Galloway Voices is a group of ladies who come together every week to sing choral music. We rehearse for concerts which we put on for the community in the Spring, Autumn and Christmas and we also sing at events in the community to which we are invited. This year we sang at the Stranraer Jazz Festival. As we sing together we build friendships and we reap the positive mental and physical benefits gained through singing.
