sell out summer concert 'A Night at the Musicals'
We've also had a brilliant weekender break at the beautiful Waverley hotel in Melrose, with members
of Linksill Choir.

Our vision is to improve the mental health and wellbeing of people in the community

'Just because you think you can't sing it doesn't mean that you shouldn't'
OUR CHOIR IS NOW AT CAPACITY - we are unable to take any new
members at this time, however, if you would like to be involved in a
festive pop up singing workshop in December please send us an email.
We will let you know the details when we have them.
Choir leaders Paul McDermott and Irene Anderson know from experience and research that singing in a group brings real physical , mental and emotional benefits.
​
Thinking you can`t sing or don`t have a great voice doesn’t mean that you shouldn`t sing and enjoy the real joy it brings
' Believe in
Yourself '
