On Friday 23 October, The Rotary Club of Wellington (Shropshire) Benevolent Fund is hosting a concert featuring the Telfordaires, following their appearance at a similar event in 2025.
The Telfordaires are an all-male voice chorus specialising in a cappella singing from the barbershop tradition. The event takes place at All Saints’ Church in Wellington and begins at 7.15pm.
The main beneficiaries from the funds raised at the event are the Lingen Davies Sunflower Appeal and Home Start Telford and Wrekin. Other local charities supported by Rotary may also benefit.
Its sunflower appeal is Lingen Davies’ biggest appeal to date, to raise £5million to grow cancer care across Shropshire, Telford and mid-Wales. The aim is to create, and have running by 2029, a Lingen Davies Chemotherapy Centre in Telford’s Princess Royal Hospital. Together with the existing chemotherapy services in the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital, this development will double capacity across Shropshire, Telford and mid-Wales. Patients will be able to access the treatment they need, where they need, much quicker!
Home-Start Telford & Wrekin was set up in 1989 to provide local families support in time of need. It’s a voluntary organisation overseen by a board of volunteer trustees and committee members.
Using its local community network of trained volunteers and expert support, it aims to give children under five the best possible start in life by helping parents to manage daily life through strengthening relationships and widening their links within their local community.
Tickets for the event costs £10 and can be booked online at Ticket Tailor. Alternatively scan the QR code or click below
