Current Chairman
Mark Whitehead 2025 – present
Mark has been singing in Male Voice Choirs since 1988 and has been a member of SEMVC since 1994. He comes from a musical background with a mother who played piano to a high level and a father who sang and played 5 instruments so he was always going to be involved in music. Being the Chairman of such a good choir gives him the chance to help show off our quality to the local community and help raise funds for local good causes.

USED STAMPS NEEDED
Sylvia Wilson is collecting used stamps for AGSD UK (Association of Glycogen Storage Disease UK), a very small charity for which this provides valuable income. To maximize their value she kindly requests that the stamps are trimmed from the envelope with a 1cm border around them. Stamps can be passed onto Sylvia via any member of the Choir.
