New members are always welcome
We welcome everyone who likes to sing for the joy of it, whether you are an experienced singer or have never sung with others before.
We have three rehearsals a month, on a Sunday afternoon, and two Monday early evenings – singing live at Didsbury Baptist Church (and with a linked Zoom session for singers online from home when necessary). See us in rehearsal HERE
Our calendar shows up-to-date details of rehearsals and all other activities.
We only ask that members agree to our simple statement of values

You can pay the subscription by bank transfer or by cheque or cash. Most people pay by bank transfer to Manchester Community Choir– our account number is 50069499 and sort code 08-92-50. Please remember to put your name as the bank transfer reference.
Manchester Community Choir is a registered charity so you can boost your subscription payment by up to 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 you pay. Gift Aid is reclaimed by the choir from the tax you pay for the current tax year. If you wish to GiftAid your subscription, please tick and date the box in your membership information. This is accessible through the association details tab below your name once you have logged in. If you have already agreed to gift aid your subscription it will be visible under Fee Schedule in your profile.
And if you would love to sing with us but can’t afford the fees, all is not lost! We have a Choir Assistance Fund and every year we help people with fees and travel expenses for events. Just contact the membership secretary and let us know what you need.
