Steeton singers praised in Commons
Steeton Male Voice Choir has been honoured in the House of Commons on its 100th birthday.
Keighley MP Ann Cryer paid tribute to the 90-strong group of singers in an early day motion this month. (May)
She addressed fellow MPs following the choir's anniversary concert at St George's Hall in Bradford.
Mrs Cryer congratulated the choir's members past and present for giving great pleasure to many people.
She also thanked the choir's Ladies Support Group and patrons for their valuable roles as helpers and supporters.
She asked the House to record the appreciation and pride that many residents of the Aire Valley had in the choir.
She added: "Its extremely fine music was demonstrated at its very best at St George's Hall."
More than 200 voices combined for last month's concert as the Steeton singers united with other choirs and a band.
