All Saints is currently offering FREE tuition in music and singing through the Royal School of Church Music (RSCM) Voice for Life scheme. This is generally for young people aged 7 and upwards, who have the opportunity to collect Awards. Singing is much more than that though - this is very much about human flourishing, and the benefits of helping young people find their own voice, learn to 'breathe' well, and have the enjoyment of singing in a mixed choir, in a sacred space with fabulous acoustics! Please contact our friendly Director of Music, Stuart Payne, on 07957 422487 or email [email protected], for more info, or turn up on a Wednesday evening.
