More than a dozen schools, community groups and local faith centres will be collaborating to make beautiful music together, breaking down barriers of silence and social isolation across the West Midlands.
Smile Community Choir is an intergenerational, multicultural and open ability access project. Singing in a community choir is a wonderful way to boost confidence, improve memory, take light exercise, generally improve your mental health and wellbeing.
