CASTLE Bromwich Singers recently brought the curtain down on their 50th anniversary celebrations by presenting their chosen charity with a cheque for £3,500.
In their golden year, the group had been raising money for the Solihull branch of Mind - one of the UK's leading mental health charities.
Dave Skerrett, from the organisation, said that the sum was the single largest amount he'd received and would go "a long way" to providing a number of key services in the borough.
The singers' this week thanked their members and those had who turned out to see their shows.
For the next 12 months, the singers have chosen to support another worthy cause - Guide Dogs for the Blind. They recently invited Sandra Woosnam, and her dog Bailey, to a meeting so they could find out more about the charity's work.
The group's next show will be Prism - Songs in Colour, to be performed at Arden Hall from October 17-20. Tickets are available on the door, or in advance from Greg on 07825 969298 or Stella on 0121 748 7635.
