West End Musical Choir Supports Cancer Research

Fancy joining us, a small group from West End Musical Choir, for a lovely morning out at one of London's most picturesque parks & raising money / awareness for charity...?

*Exclusive event for West End Musical Choir members

As you know, each Choir Term we take part in a big charity run in London BUT due to Covid-19, none of these important fundraising events are able to take place at the moment. As charities are needing our support now more than ever, we're excited to organise our own small, very chilled, charity Event in Hyde Park this August!

Whether you're a complete running novice or a total enthusiast, we'd love for you to join us breaking a sweat while raising money for our chosen charity, Cancer Research UK. You can either run or walk the route!The route around Hyde Park is totally flat, offering the perfect opportunity to enjoy your surrounding & or push yourself to a personal best.

It will only be a small group of us West End Musical Choir members, so no need to worry about any crowds! We will break off into smaller groups depending on what speed you want to go around the route (ie walking, jogging or running). All abilities welcome!

This will be a lovely opportunity for WEMC'rs to gather in a beautiful setting, exercise (running & or walking the route!) & help support a different charity for each run we do.

*If any WEMC's would like to take part but are not based in London, let us know as we'd love for to you do your own run on the same day!
