Chairman.
Steve Ellis was born in the village of Thurnscoe in the 1950’s.
He has always supported the community spirit and that is why he became a member of the choir due to their unyielding efforts to help organisations and individuals. He has always enjoyed singing and the camaraderie of working within a group.
His long term commitment to helping others has been an asset to the lads in the choir and this has led him to be elected to the position of chairman.
Steve has recently received the ‘Local Hero’ award and invited to open a new supermarket in the village, for his never ceasing work for and within his community.

Peter Purcell was born in Hemsworth and after leaving school, worked in the mine for a few years. At the age of 18 he joined ‘The 13th 18th Hussars’ and after serving 37 years, retired as Regimental Sergeant Major. Peter and his wife, Cynthia, have 3 children and 4 grandchildren, now living in different parts of the world. They both enjoy the traveling to see them. Peter, now living in Doncaster, also sings with his local church choir at St Leonard's and St Jude's, Scawsby. He says he likes the camaraderie of the choir as well as the singing.

Committee Member.
Gez Robinson was born and bred in Thurnscoe and has been with the choir since 1993. A long term committee man, he is a 2nd tennor and is a very popular soloist at concerts when required, accompanied by his delightful guitar playing. Gez served in the Navy for a couple of years and has had a wide range of jobs in his time, including road building, engineering, gardening and down the mine, but now is a self employed musician, doing ‘turns’ in clubs and various venues. Gez is pleased to be recovering from a long bout of ill health that curtailed his musical and vocal talents for a while. He says, “Singing with the choir is always something to look forward to, and long may it continue”.
