In November, we will be back at the Royal Albert Hall, working in collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra to provide young people with an unforgettable musical experience and raise vital funds for our Christmas appeal.
Over 900 young people from across the UK will come and sing together to raise vital funds for the children and young people we support to be safe, happy, healthy and hopeful.
This year our musical theme will be ‘Imagine’, and our audience will enjoy both massed choir and orchestral pieces which will celebrate some of Britain’s most adored classical pieces of music.
Young supporters from across the country will join with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Artistic Director, Benjamin Pope, to raise funds needed now to support our work across the UK to change childhoods and change lives.
Our Host will once again be our president Natasha Kaplinsky OBE.
