Our choir enjoyed a fabulous day with Bradbury Fields Choir from Liverpool, who travelled to Nottingham as part of an on-going exchange with our My Sight Notts choir.
About 40 singers, many of them visually impaired, had a thoroughly uplifting and enjoyable time performing a variety of songs from Abba to the Beatles to the Killers together with some traditional folk music!
It was really good to get back together with the Liverpool crew, it’s been 3 and a half years since we last sang together due to the pandemic. We’re really looking forward to the next one!
We’d love it if you could join us!
Here by request is a video of our wonderful visually impaired choir singing with the choir from Bradbury Fields who came down from Liverpool to sing with us!
Erica who took part in the event said: “It was a totally awesome day, bring on the next one!”

Image 4 shows a very colourful drawing of the word choir in capital letters. The C is made up of blue and white steps in a semi circle like you would typically see in a theatre, with singers in red clothes walking down them in a line. The letter H is formed by four singers, two are standing tall and two are bent with their heads together to form the capital letter H. The letter O is formed by a bright yellow and red open mouth as someone sings with enthusiasm! The letter I is formed by a singer in a blue suit standing straight and tall with his arms high above his head. The letter R is formed by a drawing of a female singer with blond hair and a red and white top, she has a large round tummy and her legs form the downward stroke of the capital letter R.
