Past concerts
 
In March 2005, the choir supported the Blue Ginger Tsunami Fund Raising Day in Steventon Village Hall by providing a short programme of songs from the shows as part of the afternoon entertainment.

In October 2003, we led a sing-in of Handel's Messiah in Steventon Church as part of Voices for Hospices 2003. A choir of some 50 voices helped to raise over £900 for Sir Michael Sobell House in Oxford. We also took part in the previous BT Voices for Hospices in 2000 and 1997, again raising money for Sobell House with a sing-in of the Messiah.

Each December the choral society runs a stall at the Christmas Bazaar in Steventon Village Hall. In December 2005, our stall raised £120 for Village Hall funds.
