The choir will host its first meeting in Wakefield at St Austin’s Church, found on Wentworth Terrace, on Tuesday, January 17 from 7.30pm to 9pm.

Set up by York-based singing coach, Lucy McClean, in 2013, Lucy’s Pop Choir already boasts groups in Bradford, Harrogate and Leeds.

Lucy said: “I set up the original choir as a bit of an experiment after I couldn’t find a group to sing pop songs with.

"It has grown and grown since then. We’ve got choirs in Leeds, Harrogate and Bradford and so, Wakefield was the next logical place to spread to.

“I want to encourage everyone to come and give it a bash, all of our singers have made so many new friends since starting out.”

The choir is open to anyone over the age of 18 and the first taster session is free.
