Haslemere Rock Choir
If you have ever thought 'I want to join a choir near me in Haslemere?' then why not join your local Rock Choir. The Haslemere Rock Choir is led by local vocal tutor Georgie Standage. We are the local community choir with the national reputation - join the Haslemere Rock Choir and experience the singing phenomenon that Will Smith described as 'Fantastic'. Whilst retaining our community spirit, we come together en masse for national and regional events, giving our members unrivalled performance opportunities and experiences beyond compare, ranging from singing on BBC Breakfast Christmas Special in 2011 to our local Surrey music, food and fireworks festivals! Rock Choir offers the chance to sing pop, rock and Motown songs together in a comfortable, unauditioned way. There are a minimum of 10 singing sessions a term with lots of extra FREE rehearsals in the year to get you happy and ready to do the really fun bit - sing and perform as a choir, and any commitment you make are organised to fit around the main holiday times in the year. We are looking forward to hearing from you and it's easy to contact us by phone, email or directly book your FREE singing taster session at rockchoir.com/join. Here is a quote about our choir - 'Being part of the choir has given me a wonderful opportunity to belong to a fantastic venture into the world of contemporary music and given me a new lease of life. Singing in the choir is a much better 'pick-me-up' than any anti-depressant tablet prescribed by a doctor. I come away after the weekly choir session with the best feeling ever and the companionship with fellow members is something money can't buy.' - Janet (Rock Choir member) Rock Choir is a winner of the Red Ribbon 'Big Heart' Award [https://rockchoir.com/awards-achievements/]. and holds 1 former and 2 current Guinness World Records. The choir is also credited with single handedly starting the contemporary choir movement.Read more

Lesley Carver - An evening of Clairvoyance
As both a gifted medium and spiritual teacher Lesley has become known internationally through her stage shows, one to one readings and psychic classes as well as offering clients the opportunity to call one of her team. Anyone attending one of Lesleys stage shows comes away after a relaxing and fun filled night of entertainment filled with laughter and tears, her unique ability includes being able to bring through spirit of a loved one on the request of an audience participant, to which Lesley humorously delivers her messages with love, caring and sincerity. "I have now been working as a Psychic Medium for 15 years and I continue to meet lovely people and help them to get closure and move on with their lives. Whether the reading is done on a pure Psychic level (including clairvoyance) or medium level, I feel very privileged to be a small part of this process and used as a channel for these messages which give guidance and comfort to clients."Read more
About Haslemere
Haslemere is a town in Surrey, close to the border with both Hampshire and West Sussex. The major road between London and Portsmouth, the A3, lies to the west, and a branch of the River Wey to the south. Haslemere is approximately 12 miles (19 km) south-west of Guildford. Haslemere is surrounded by hills, with Blackdown at 920 feet (280 m) to the south and Gibbet Hill at 894 feet (272 m) to the north. The latter was the site of executions in past centuries. Many of those hanged there were highwaymen, because the roads around Haslemere, particularly alongside the nearby Devil's Punch Bowl, were notoriously dangerous. Today, much of the heathland and woodland is owned and protected by the National Trust, and has become a popular attraction for walkers. The town also marks the western end of the Greensand Way footpath which extends for 110 miles (180 km) to Hamstreet in Kent, and is one end of the Serpent Trail. Haslemere is the most southerly town in Surrey.
