Direct Legal and Collections (DLC), based in Buckingham Road, recently agreed to become the choir's first sponsor and will help with administration and running costs in the coming year.

DLC operations director Steve Grima said: "We are pleased to support local organisations and charities that do good work for the town in providing local people with entertainment."

The choir, which has 22 active members, performs concerts in local towns and villages throughout the year and has raised thousands of pounds for good causes since it formed in 1995.

Chorister Colin Lands said the new sponsorship would keep members' subscription fees to a minimum and may allow the choir to stage additional concerts.

The choir's next concert will be held at St Peter's Church in Brackley on October 25, starting at 7pm.

The concerts will feature traditional male choral pieces and songs from the shows. Special guests at the October event will include Brackley Mayor and Mayoress Cllr Kevin and Elaine Dixon, as well as DLC directors and employees.
