The choir’s main mission is to enrich people’s lives through music. The Nottingham Hospitals Choir has been performing choral music for over 40 years. Throughout its history the choir has presented many concerts and other choral events at various venues, ranging from the Royal Concert Hall Nottingham, The Albert Hall Nottingham, Southwell Minster, Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, Aspley Methodist Chu
rch, Bramcote St Michael’s and All Angel’s Church to name but a few. The choir actively contributes to the community not just through its music but also by contributing proceeds from concerts to local and national charities; such as Kinder (Paediatric Renal Unit), Rainbows, When you wish upon a star and CLIC formerly Sargent Cancer Care all of which provide support and care for families and children suffering from cancer and to those who provide various forms of direct health care. All choir members are strongly committed to the work of the choir. Being a member of the choir can be an enjoyable and rewarding experience, be it through singing and learning new music, team spirit or through friendship and social activity. Members belong to the choir because they enjoy singing. They come from a variety of backgrounds, from all walks of life and professions of various ages. We are looking for new members to join us, you do not have to be employed by the NHS, just have a love of singing.
