Event information
Community Choir event in aid of the brilliant Robes Project Winter Shelter at Copleston Centre and robes.org.uk, featuring four established and talented South London based community choirs - NUNHEAD CHOIR, PALACE & BECKENHAM ACAPPELLA CHOIRS and TELEGRAPH HILL CHOIR singing their hearts out!
Perfectly put on the Nunhead website:
"It’s hard to imagine how tough it is sleeping rough through the cold of the winter months. Robes winter night shelter stands at the heart of everything we do, bringing together 30 or so churches, like Copleston, and around 550 amazing volunteers to offer 35 warm beds for the night from November to April.
We’ll be joined by 3 other great local choirs for a full evening of music to support this worthwhile cause. You can buy tickets via this link – https://wegottickets.com/f/22035/ . Tickets will also be available on the door."
