Choir Open Evening at St Mary's Church!

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
St Mary's, Portsea
Address
Fratton Road Portsea Portsmouth, PO1 5PH, United Kingdom

St Mary's Church Choir is holding an open evening for any young people who may be interested in joining! Our choir provides young people with exciting and varied experiences, from singing in church on Sundays to trips to different venues to sing in concerts, on TV and on the radio.

The choir is also a great way to develop young people's musical abilities. Alongside weekly rehearsals, there is also an opportunity for private music lessons to learn an instrument (in return for a commitment to singing in the choir). Young people who regularly engage with the choir are also given pocket money to encourage attendance!

If you know a young person who would enjoy singing and would like to find out more about the church choir, what they do and what they can offer, then do invite them to come along to the open evening! If you cannot make that time but would like to find out more and get involved, please contact [email protected]. You can also find out more through this video: https://youtu.be/Qs_56RYNGHw

The choir is always looking for adult singers as well, if you are interested please do get in touch with [email protected]

Safeguarding

The Parish of Portsea is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We work to create protective and supportive environments where all people, especially those who may be vulnerable, are able to worship and pursue their faith journey in safety.

We follow the national legal and procedural framework for safeguarding children and adults. We also follow the Church of England's guidance and policies, as set out by the House of Bishops, and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). More information about national policy, links to wider resources, and Portsmouth-specific information (including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisors, who advise our PSOs), can be found on the Diocese of Portsmouth's safeguarding page.

If you have a safeguarding concern about an adult or child, please contact our Parish Safeguarding Officers - Jenny, Mandy & Linsey - at [email protected]

Alternatively, you can contact the Diocese's safeguarding team at [email protected] or 023 9289 9665

If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
