Latest recruit for the Kingsmen
Music Director (MD) Roy Hann’s grandson Freddie, who is Deputy MD Gary Rowe’s 12yr old son, is the latest recruit to the ranks of ‘Kingsmen’. Freddie was ‘sung in’ to the song ‘Consider Yourself’ by the main chorus at last weeks rehearsal.
He has joined the ‘tenor’ section and has already learned many songs of the repertoire including Christmas songs. He should be on the stage for the Kingsmen’s Christmas Show at the Watermark, Ivybridge on Friday 10th Dec at 7pm.
He has already proved to be a great asset to the chorus. He follows in the footsteps of the previous youngest member, and his cousin Josh Vaughan, who joined as an 8yr old some years ago and is now making his own way in the music world with his rock band ‘Capulus’ in Bournemouth.

So, in the words of Jim Stewart, why would a 67 year old who hasn't even completed a "couch to 5k" run in a Marathon, let alone the Madrid event, one of the hilliest on the circuit? Jim has chosen to take up this challenge to run and raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK, this is the Kingsmen Chairmans Charity this year and so we are all throwing all of our support behind Jim. Here's why Jim chosen to run and raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK "I recently sat in my GP’s office after a PSA test. My results were ‘normal,’ yet I was told not to take 'comfort' in that. The PSA is only an indication, not a diagnosis, and it left me with a chilling realization: 'normal' doesn’t always mean 'safe.'" Prostrate Cancer UK's mission is: Prostate Cancer UK has a simple ambition - to stop men dying from prostate cancer. Through shifting the science over the next 10 years to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and support, we will stop prostate cancer being a killer.
