🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ "Find out who you are, and do it on purpose," said Dolly Parton. A staunch and outspoken ally of the LGBTQ+ community and someone who continues to inspire musicians around the world.

Many of us are feeling terribly sad, following the news of her death at the age of 80. Her songs bring back so many memories, including our rendition of 9 to 5, which we performed outside a performance of the stage musical in Manchester back in 2013. This clip is from our performance at the 2014 Various Voices Choir Festival. We hope you enjoy it x

Our rehearsal session this week was a bit different, as we focused on shaping our strategy for the next few years.

This is a really important step for us to take as a charity, ensuring we are setting goals and meeting them, in order to help us serve our members and community in the best way 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Today is International Non-Binary People's Day 💛🤍💜🖤

Exactly half-way between International Women's Day and International Men's Day, today aims to recognise, celebrate and support those who identify as non-binary, meaning their gender identity does not fit comfortably as 'woman' or 'man'.

It's a reminder to those who are not non-binary to demonstrate good allyship, by using correct pronouns, introducing yourself using your own pronouns and replacing binary language like 'ladies and gentlemen' with alternatives like 'everyone'.
