In the charity's own words
We give members the opportunity to sing together in a community choir, perhaps for the first time, as well as explore repertoire (from classical, world and folk to gospel and pop) that maintains the interest of the more experienced singers. Healthy use of the voice is encouraged, and the basics of reading music is taught. Performances are given in a variety of venues across the local area.
