- Octagon Autumn Concert

Date Posted: Sun, 5 Oct 2025
On 13 September we held an Autumn concert at the wonderful Octagon Chapel in Norwich, raising funds for our charity of the
year Bone Cancer Trust. It was a wonderful evening of close harmony singing by the whole chorus and quartet and trio too. We also heard some delightful original poetry and were treated to a jazz piano performance by one of our members.
Such a joyful occasion raising money for a fabulous charity. Thanks to everyone who bought tickets and came along to the concert, supported by buying refreshments and raffle tickets we raised the amazing sum of £1268.84.

Raising funds for our annual Charity Bone Cancer Trust, Katy S organised a magnificient Sound and Vision Quiz on 20 June. Despite a difficult start where the caretaker 'forgot' about opening up for us meaning we had to change rooms, Katy took us through a wonderful evening's entertainment.
It began with a plou9hmans style dinner with lots of drinks and nibbles brought in by each table, then we got down to the serious business of quizzing.
A total of 9 teams of 6 enjoyed several picture and sound rounds together with a knotty challenge and a table challenge where the only clue was the 4 sticks on the table.
Katy, ably assisted by her scoremaster Dianne put us all through our paces and everyone agreed it was an amazing evening, raising the stagging sum of £576.00 for our charity. Looking forward to our next quiz in November, make sure you book your tables early; these are usually sell out evenings.

St Georges Dementia Cafe was chosen as our good cause for 2024. In February a small group from Norwich Harmony were invited to sing at a session of the cafe where we entertained with various songs from our repetoire and invited audience participation with some well known favourites like Frere Jacques and others done with a Norwich Harmony twist, How Much is that Doggy in the Window. We presented a cheque for £1439.50 which was the result of our fund raising throughout the year.Attachment:

On 11 January Sir Norman Lamb and his wife Mary visited our Thursday rehearsal where they treated to some of our repetoire before collecting a cheque in the sum of £1214.47, the result of our fundraising activities during 2023. Sir Norman thanked the chorus and outlined some of the many smaller local charities who might benefit from this donation. Both he and Mary stayed for coffee and biscuits chatting to most of the chorus members. A lovely evening.
