Friends of Romsey Choral Society

We are very grateful for the financial support we receive from the Friends of Romsey Choral Society. Having additional funds gives us the freedom to choose from a wider range of music and put together really exciting programmes and projects.

We would like to record our thanks to the Friends of Romsey Choral Society listed in our concert programme, as well as those donors who choose to remain anonymous, for their continued support. All our Friends are listed in our programmes (unless they prefer otherwise) and are invited to special events.

An annual Friends’ subscription is £60. In return we offer a free programme at each RCS concert, and a drink at the interval bar at our two annual concerts held in Romsey Abbey (please present your Friends’ welcome letter at the door/bar).

If you would like to become a Friend, or have any queries, please contact our Friends administrator at [email protected]
