Children's Mental Health Week - can you help?

Hello! I’m Sophie from the Clapham Choir.

I'm a manager and music therapist at Connect-Ed, a school creative therapies and counselling service with therapists in over 80 schools across London.

For Children's Mental Health Week 2024 (w/c Feb 5th), we want to put on a big creative community event bringing together hundreds of children from some of these schools to sing songs, display artwork and tell stories around the theme of supporting mental health and wellbeing. We are really excited about this prospect and are currently looking for ideas for a potential venue and any partners who may be able to support.

Do you have any contacts at arts venues who may be interested in this? We are a charity and we would want parents of children to be able to attend this event for free as we work with families from disadvantaged backgrounds, so accessibility is very important.

Please let me know if you have any ideas or contacts, I would be so grateful! Sophie x

Some Voices

SOME VOICES started small in 2010, with seven chorus members meeting up to perform original arrangements of popular classics that range from Bowie to Bjork, from Stevie Wonder to Stevie Nicks, from Folk to Hip Hop, and everything in between - all with a Some Voices twist.

Nine years down the line, more than 1500 singers are now part of the exciting ensemble that performs on some of the biggest stages in London. KOKO, The Southbank Centre, Oval Space,The Rivoli Ballroom, The Grand Clapham, HERE and The Troxy have all seen the group attract audiences in their thousands
