It was during one such concert we came across our Social Night meeting venue and Belper's oldest building, St.John's Chapel (1250 AD),St Johns Road, Belper- now known as The Belper Heritage Centre.Over the years various fund raising events have enabled us to purchase a Yamaha EL70 for members' use. Other members also bring their own keyboards to our social nights.These are held fortnightly from 7pm to 10pm.The cost is £1 inc refreshments. (See diary for dates)


On the 3rd Saturday of each month at 7.30pm we present professional concerts, with the top names of the Organ & Keyboard world.These concerts take place at our other larger venue in town, The Congregational Church,Green Lane, Belper. Thanks to a dedicated team the church is transformed into a mini theatre with curtains, lighting, video projection and seating for 120 people.
