CHORUS!
and a
Connecting Through Singing
Cuppa & A Chorus offers an
opportunity to sing in a relaxed
environment and enjoy a cup
of tea, a piece of cake and a
friendly chat! Led by experienced
community musician Chris
Bartram, sessions will give you
the chance to sing some of the
songs you know and love and
explore new ones from around
the world. You don’t need to
have sung before or consider
yourself musical, just enjoy
taking part and singing with other
likeminded people. With up to 50
singers attending each session,
participants feel uplifted by the
beautiful sounds produced in
only one session and often feel
the benefit thereafter.
Participants commented “Lovely
group thank you - good tonic at a
time that is not so bright”

Broadening Horizons
A Song for Health
In 2019 The World Health
Organisation published a report
about the health benefits of
the arts. Their conclusion was
‘The arts are good for you’.
Join community musician
Chris Bartram and Dr Nicola
Gill to discover more about
this research and how the arts
can improve your health and
wellbeing. Hear Nicola outline
the evidence and experience
the benefits for yourself in an
informal, relaxing singing session
led by Chris. This session is open
to everyone; you don’t need to
be able to sing, consider yourself
musical, or have an interest in
the arts. We just ask that you are
curious to broaden your horizons
and find out more.
