Appledore Singers - Farewell Concert

Appledore Singers will mark the end of their 41-year musical journey with a farewell concert supporting Barnstaple-based charity Chemo Hero at Northam Hall on Sunday 6 December 2026 at 2.30pm.

Director of Music Pam Beechy has led the choir throughout its history, with accompaniment from her husband, Chris.

Rehearsing year-round in Appledore, the choir has traditionally staged spring and Christmas concerts. This year’s Christmas performance will be its last.

The choir has raised many thousands of pounds for national and local charities, including Macmillan, the Samaritans, Harbour, Families in Grief and North Devon Hospice. Its final concert will support Chemo Hero, a Barnstaple-based charity supporting people undergoing chemotherapy at the Seamoor Unit at NDDH.

The farewell performance will celebrate more than four decades of music, community involvement and charitable giving.

The Appledore Singers invite the community to join them for this final celebration and support Chemo Hero.
