The choir started over forty years ago as an evening class in Southport.  Their tutor then took the choir to become The Richard Hart Singers until 2019 when we re-branded as ‘The Ainsdale Village Singers.  We are now mixed & inclusive small and friendly community choir, singing a wide variety of different types of music in arrangements for up to four parts: soprano, alto, tenor and bass. We draw our members from Ainsdale and the surrounding areas within Southport.

The choir currently has more than 40 members and gives two main concerts a year, as well as smaller local performances throughout the area, raising money for our nominated charity for 2025, ‘The Learning Rooms’, a not-for-profit community organisation offering day provision for adults with learning disabilities.

We rehearse on a Thursday evening in Ainsdale Village Church Hall, Station Road, Ainsdale PR8 3HW from 730pm.

Our Musical Director is Stewart Hankinson, who joined us in 2017. We also have a piano accompanist, Brenda Redmond, during concerts and rehearsals during our three terms of each year.
