Choir ‘Call-Out’ – Are there any choirs or soloists in your Parish?

Herefordshire choirs and soloists are invited to take part in a festive musical spectacular in Hereford City Centre at the beginning of December 2025.

This exciting event will be a charity fundraiser in aid of the Baton of Hope and local mental wellbeing organisations. No choir is too big or too small – the ambition is to bring Herefordshire together, united around mental health, to create one of the largest choral events the county has ever seen.

 

Please use the link to register interest:
