Honley Male Voice Choir is a registered charity (charity no. 1158453) based in Honley near Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. We teach choral singing to develop our community involvement. Singing is a pleasurable activity, which reduces stress and anxiety levels and contributes to positive mental wellbeing. For more information regarding the Choir please click here - Honley MVC
On Saturday 22 July, 2023 members of the Choir will go the extra mile, fundraising with their feet for Platform 1 and the Choir. We shall be pounding the streets, fields and woodlands of the Holme Valley for a sponsored walk to help raise funds in support of mental wellbeing.
Our 'Charity of the Year' Platform 1 Huddersfield, is a mental health and crisis charity helping people with complex needs. They encourage recovery through various activities, allowing people to recover at their own pace, within a safe and non-judgmental environment.
