Each year, Wimbledon Community Chorus selects a charity to support, through fundraising events and by donating proceeds from our concerts.
This year we are proud to support Blues and Roots Ensemble.
Blues & Roots Ensemble (BARE) is a diverse collective of internationally renowned musicians dedicated to sharing the creativity, history and joy of jazz through powerful live performances and inclusive education projects.
Led by double bassist and educator Ed Babar, the ensemble creates immersive concerts, workshops and theatre experiences that encourage creativity, collaboration and self-expression for participants of all ages and abilities.

As we start our new choir year, we are delighted to see so many new people enjoying their free trial session at Wimbledon Community Chorus, many of whom have joined us as members.
This is an open offer to anyone throughout the year, not just at the beginning of a term, so if you are considering singing in a choir, come and join us on a Tuesday evening, for a free, no obligation trial. We start our rehearsals at 7.45 at St Mary's RC Primary School, Russell Road, Wimbledon SW19 1QL.
We look forward to giving you a warm welcome soon.

Every year, Wimbledon Community Chorus nominates a charity to support over the coming year.
This year we have selected The Amber Trust, a local charity with national impact. They have been providing musical opportunities for blind and partially sighted children, and children with more complex needs, via its Music Awards and Music Services for 30 years.
We look forward to working with them where 'Music is not just a pastime, it is a lifeline'.

We are very excited to be starting a new term, with a new repertoire. Our member's survey results will be presented at our upcoming AGM, and it is good to see so many responding that the choir is so much fun and gives such a strong sense of community to all.
If you are not already a member and are considering joing a local choir, please come along for a rehearsal and join in or observe. We will make you feel welcome and the trial session is free.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
