We are constantly working to support many charities and good causes, well known and some not so well known as our monthly charity collection reflects the generosity of the choir members. With so many causes needing help, we invite suggestions from within our ranks as to where our efforts may be focused and this spreads financial support as fairly as possible across a wide range of deserving causes.






Friday morning provides a very useful entertaining workshop with local Alzheimer’s friends in the choir’s own Robert Wilson Hall, 12c Warren Road, Donaghadee
As we enjoy singing we strive to entertain, meet new people, perform with many artists, travel to destinations near and far to promote choral music and in the process gain much needed funds for many charities. Concerts, church services etc allow for the work to continue as we can support other organisations in their efforts to fund raise for their particular chosen charities and some examples can be seen here along with the choirs chosen recipients.
