Congratulations to Nancy Cornwallis, Tutor since 2011 of U3A Banyule Singing for Pleasure class and conductor of Audacity Choir! Nancy has received a Lifetime Contribution Individual Volunteer Award from Banyule Council.
The wording of her nomination read (in part): “Nancy’s firm belief in the enormous therapeutic and physiological benefits of singing has been the driving force behind her contribution to the community. Nancy’s patience, persistence, knowledge and supportive nature create an atmosphere where regardless of ability, people are inspired and committed to follow their passion for singing.” The Award also recognised her contribution as founder of Serendipity Choir in 1990.
