In 2009, Trinity Church (then Southover Church) established Lewes Sings Gospel (LSG) as part of their drive to be an outward-looking, inclusive community. Since then, LSG has become a vibrant community where it is easy to meet new people, grow friendships and enjoy the journey of learning and singing gospel music together. In 2014 LSG were the winners of the BBC Songs of Praise Gospel Choir of the Year award. Karen has been with the choir since it’s inception.
