THE music of the Voices of Frankston is still bringing people together and breaking down boundaries through concerts and community events.
The roof was almost raised at High Street Uniting Church on Wednesday as the choir members were in full voice to celebrate the unfurling of new banners donated by Carrum Downs company AFI Branding Solutions.
Founder of Voices of Frankston Janet McCahon said that the banners would help raise the profile of the choir and would be used in future concerts and performances.
School of Hard Knocks founder Jonathon Welch was there to accept the banners, along with Steve Phillips, Manager of Community Support Frankston and Dawn Peacock, Chair of Operation Larder and Rev David Fotheringham from the Uniting Church.
Voices of Frankston choir, which is supported by the School of Hard Knocks, was launched three years ago with 20 members. The choir now has 40 choristers from all walks of life, who by singing together have gained confidence, friendship and support from each other.
The choir meet each Wednesday rehearsal enjoying lunch and fellowship together, and is planning a joint concert with the Australian Welsh Choir in November.
