Belper - 9 May 2009 - from Grimsby & Cleethorpes
Ladies Choir
"On behalf of the ladies, thank you for a great evening.
The concert was fabulous. Our "groupies" said
both choirs sand exceptionally well. The social afterwards
was very enjoyable, something that we don't do very often,
makes it all the more enjoyable when we do. There were many
requests for a return visit, so watch this space. We will
be in touch". |

Ambergate - 4 April 2009
I have waited until we have the final figure for the concert,
which is £1060, we were absolutely amazed! Now I would like
to say a very big thank you to your good self, and to all
the members of The Dalesmen Male Voice Choir for such a
wonderful evening, it was absolutely brilliant, everything
about the event was fantastic. Your choice of songs was
great, as was your "compere" and we hope that you will return
when the work is complete!! I would also like to congratulate
you all on your attire - you looked so very smart (why not
enter the choir of the year competition on TV). Our very
best wishes to you all, and again many, many thanks for
such a lovely and successful evening. |

Landau Forte College, Derby - 5 December 2008
What a wonderful evening it was last Friday. I have received
nothing but praise for the concert. One person related that
the concert was the best one she had been to. The programme
from both the Dalesmen and Derwent Brass helped enormously
in the public enjoyment of the evening. Please convey our
very grateful thanks to Andrew and everyone in the Choir,
not forgetting Sian Mosley, who I thought did an excellent
job. We look forward to seeing you all again next year.

Penkridge 25 October 2008
On behalf of the the Penkridge Royal British Legion, thank
you very much indeed for the concert. The music was splendid
and musical director George Hardy of my choir, the Cannock
Festival Chorus, had a good chat with Andrew. You never
know we may singing with you in the future We thought the
night was a tremendous success and we raised the magnificent
sum of £560.00 for our Poppy Appeal. Everyone who I have
seen since said what a great night it was and when do you
come again. I think perhaps we had better wait for a couple
of years for that, although I don't think we would have
any trouble filling the Church again. |

The concert was a great success and was enjoyed immensely
by everyone. We made in the region of f780 which is absolutely
brilliant and this will cover the cost of Christmas presents
for our members with a learning disability and part of the
catering for our Christmas party. Thank you so much for
your part in the concert and your help with raising some
money for our Society. We will most certainly contact you
again in the future to arrange another concert to augment
our funds. Our best wishes to you all and keep singing! |

Matlock - 18 July 2008
Thank you so much for the cheque for £320 donated
to the MS Pioneer Fund. You will probably know that Ian
is right in the middle of his treatment and going through
a very rough time. He appreciates how much people care and
that is sustaining him. We're all hoping he is over the
worst and will be back singing with both groups soon. Matlock
G & S also enjoyed the concert. Perhaps we can do it
again sometime. Many thanks and best regards. |

On behalf of Rita and all the ladies of the Choir, can I
please ask you to convey our heartfelt thanks to Andrew
and all the gentlemen of the Dalesmen MVC for your contribution
to our very successful concert on Saturday night. I think
you will agree with us that it was a splendid evening, and
the many comments we have had from the audience, tell us
that it was very well received by them too. I trust you
had a good journey home, and a much-deserved lie-in on Sunday
morning! I hope we will be able to find a suitable date
in the near future when we can join together for another
concert in your part of the world. |

I am writing on behalf of the Bakewell Committee of Cancer

enjoyed by all present. You gave us a very varied programme
with splendid soloists and the obvious enjoyment you all
get from your singing was very infectious. We are all
very impressed with the amount of time and effort you
must all give. Thanks to you we raised the splendid sum
of £430 for which we are very grateful. RL

St. Luke's Church, Leek, Staffordshire - October
2007
"On behalf of the Scout Holiday Homes Trust, I would
like to thank the Dalesmen Male Voice Choir for their performance
on 27 October 2007. What a wonderful night we had, it was
amazing. The comments we received last night and this morning
were really nice, everyone enjoyed the concert so much.
After the concert Colonel (Dr.) Sethi (Deputy Lord Lieutenant
of Staffordshire) was really impressed with all the performers
on the night and said he especially enjoyed the soloist
and the choir singing together. At the concert were a number
of residents from the Nursing Home, where I work and one
gentleman, Frank, some years had a bad stroke, which took
his speech. Last night Colonel Sethi spotted the Regimental
Badge on Frank's blazer and went to talk to him. With all
the excitement of the concert I though I would call to see
if he was all right this morning. When I arrived, Matron
said, "You had better go up to see Frank". To my amazement
he had started to talk, not very well yet, but you could
tell what he was trying to say. It seems that he enjoyed
the concert very much. God bless him, he made me feel quite
emotional. Thank you all once again". |

a privilege to sing in the beautiful Christ Church, Belper
with The Dalesmen and the buffet you provided for us after

the not too distant future. Thank you again for your hospitality"

Bury St. Edmunds - September 2007
"My sincere thanks to all the Dalesmen for the valuable
contribution that you made to a very successful concert
at Trinity on Saturday evening. On Sunday I heard so many
expressing how enjoyable they found the concert. It was
also a success in financial terms. The final amount raised
was just short of £1,200 of which £600 is being sent to
the Zimbabwe Victims Support Fund, to be used to sustain
people at the very edge of existence. I hope that you had
a good concert on Sunday and a safe journey home and I look
forward to a future event which might allow us to sing together
again " |

I enjoyed your concert at Harleston. It was nice to see

Choir but also a happy Choir and we look forward to visiting
you in 2009." |

concert which put another £881 profit from the evening
into our coffers. It won't be there long because we have
just been asked if the "Friends" could fund two

thank Andrew White and the Choir".

"Thank you so much for the wonderful farewell concert
you presented this evening and for the beautiful flowers.
Brian and I very much appreciated it all. Thank you, too,
for the "This is Your Life" - I couldn't have
made up a better story! (especially taking five years
off my life). I received £430 - £230 has gone
towards repairs at the Church and £200 to St. Lukes
Cheshire Hospice (my husband's brother died of cancer
last week). Every continued blessing".

"On behalf of the Derbyshire Association for the
Blind I would like to thank the Dalesmen Male Voice Choir
for your contribution towards Pat Taylor's retirement
party on Saturday evening. Many people have told me how
much they enjoyed the music you performed. You gave the
evening a real flavour of success. Many members of staff
worked hard to ensure Pat enjoyed a night to remember.
We could not have achieved this without the help and support
you have given us. I would like to personally thank you
for making the process very simple. You are a very professional
outfit and a pleasure to work with".

Belper - March 2007
"Thank you so much for organising a wonderful concert
on Saturday evening. Your support is very much appreciated
and really does make a difference to the lives of the
children and families in our care. Rainbows offers respite,
palliative and terminal care for the children as well
as offering support for the whole family. Care is provided
by a dedicated and caring team of professional nurses,
carers and therapists in a "home from home" environment.
To continue to provide the care and support to the children
and their families we have to raise in excess of £2 million
every year and this really wouldn't be possible without
the kind help and support we receive from organisations
and people like you. Sadly the need for Rainbows will
never disappear but with help such as yours we can continue
to provide this very special care and support. Once again,
many thanks for thinking of rainbows. With deepest regards,
Community Fundraiser"
