"I used to be part of an all-boys choir when I was younger. I always enjoyed being part of the group, and now I join in with Elworth Grange's singing group – I'm the baritone."

John Craig, the Home Manager at Elworth Grange, added: "We're very excited to welcome the City of Stoke-on-Trent Male Voice Choir to our home. We're sure it'll be a performance to remember.

"All are welcome to join us, and we'll have refreshments available, so please come along for some fantastic musical entertainment!"
