About

History

The Club started in May 2023 with three people. It has grown to more than a dozen now and we have started to play as a band in local care homes, clubs and venues for older folk.

Who we are

The members comprise mainly from the residents of Turners Hill Park, where we currently meet every Tuesday afternoon 2-4 pm at the Country Club. We welcome new members of any ability, and initially you don't need an instrument. Just turn up!!

First picked up a Ukulele 9 years ago, learning the basics of playing before breaking out and joining a little band. My main pleasure is learning how to play new songs and I get a real buzz playing to an audience, leaving the venue knowing we put on a professional performance.

January 2023- Travelled all the way to York to celebrate a friends 50th Wedding Anniversary with absolutely no thought about Ukuleles. Went to a social club the night before and a small group got up during the evening and played 3 songs.

Something stirred in me...

By the time the week was over I had met 4 different people in 4 different venues all talking about Ukuleles! I went out and bought one!!
