Local Vocals are a community of choirs based in the North of the UK, centred around supporting local charities through the joy of singing together. So far, we have raised over £56,000 for local causes in need through performance, flashmobs, recording projects, events, cake & book sales and more.

All 34 of our community choirs will fundraise for North West Cancer Research this term through local fundraising activities, and on Sunday 1st August 2026, we'll be producing two shows at Bridgewater Hall in Manchester to fundraise for the charity as well.

North West Cancer Research are the only independent charity dedicated to tackling cancer across the North West and North Wales and their goal is simple: to put the region’s cancer needs first.

Since 2000, they have funded more than £55 million of world-class research, addressing cancer inequalities and championing our local research community to pave the way for a cancer-free future.

From life-saving research to leading ground-breaking projects that unveil better and kinder treatments, they strive to tackle the cause, improve the care and, importantly, find the cure.

But none of this would be possible without the dedication of their supporters, who work hand-in-hand with the charity to achieve a future that is free from cancer – together, we can make our vision a reality.
