The Ludlow Medieval Festival leaves behind lots of straw - meaning an army of local Young Farmers armed with forks and rakes, attend the annual "Castle Clean Up" - all funds raised go to charity!! This year, Ludlow Medieval had only 2 skips sent to landfill compared to 37 in 2010!! All the star collected goes for manure, so win win.

Keep an eye out around Ludlow for all our New Members evening signs! More info.

This year, missing the snowy roads from 2010 - members came out in force to sing to the locals in what was our biggest carol singing yet. Well turned out and well tuned, we got everyone in the festive mood all for a great cause. We have raised money this year for the worthy, Midland Air Ambulance which relies purely on donations. Beginning with a practice during the Haytons Bent Comedy Night, on the 20th and 21st of December the club visited local residents and sang our hearts out. We event did a remix of Once in Royal Davids City. We thank you all for having us and donating. Merry Christmas.
