Join us
There are lots of ways you can become involved, only one of which involves singing!
If you would like to sing with us, you are welcome to join us as a member of the Choir. If singing is not for you but you are willing to help us as part of our 'front of house' operation, then we would love to welcome you as an associate member.
Perhaps you might consider supporting us by becoming a Friend or Patron of the Choir; or by sponsoring a soloist at one of our concert performances?
