The choir, with friends of the Lobb family, sang on BBC Music Day at an event to mark the unveiling of a blue plaque at St. Helier Methodist Centre (formerly Wesley Grove) commemorating the work of John Fry Lobb who was instrumental in establishing the Jersey Festival Choir.  The plaque also mentions John’s brother and sister, Arthur Lobb and Amy Luce, for the contribution that all three made and a particular mention is made of the Festival Choir as can be seen below.
