Research has shown that singing improves our sense of happiness and wellbeing and that people feel more positive after actively singing than they do after passively listening to music.
Here are some thoughts from our Hillingdon Sing! Choir members on why they enjoy Hillingdon Sing! Choir sessions:
“I have found singing is a great way to switch off completely from any stresses and strains and of course it is lovely to be part of a group and make new friends.”
“A lovely choir – very friendly with a wide choice of songs. Lucy keeps us all together and improves our singing standards.”
“It’s always a joy to sing, it’s so good for your health and you make so many friends.”

“I can honestly say that I wish I hadn't taken so long to
join - I love coming to choir.”
“It is one of the few things I could do after my stroke.”
“Good fun and always very enjoyable – it feels good to sing out loud!”
“Choir is very enjoyable, uplifting and so fulfilling. It’s great to be able to learn different styles of music and we get a real satisfaction when we perform them.”
