Some say they are worried about the future if the trend cannot be reversed. But one of the founders of Only Boys Aloud said male choirs needed to work at attracting younger members. One choir which has just begun trying to recruit new members is Cor Meibion Maelgwn, which rehearses in Llandudno Junction.
