In the charity's own words
The Cathedral Chamber Choir visits Cathedrals, Chapels and Churches in the UK and provides Choral Music for liturgical services to a high standard. Members are drawn from all over the UK. The choir's surplus funds may sometimes be used to support with bursaries and scholarships singers, particularly young people, who would not otherwise be able to meet all the costs of such a visit.
