As a registered charity, Platinum Choral Foundation enables Platinum Consort’s vision to become reality - providing unique choral experiences through concerts, recordings and bespoke workshops for singers of all ages and abilities. The global pandemic threatened the existence of many arts organisations, but with the help of our generous supporters Platinum was able to adapt successfully and offer exquisite online choral opportunities for all its singers. We want to enable Platinum Consort to evolve - not go backwards - and we need your help to achieve this.
Putting on in-person concerts and choral events is a very costly affair. With full capacity audiences and participants we can hope to break even, at best. We still believe our artistic endeavours are worthwhile. We can achieve great things with the help of our generous donors and, to that end, we have created a Circle Scheme so you can support us at different levels. We trust the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) to process our donations and Gift Aid securely. Please join us in our quest to further the creative output of the wonderful musicians of Platinum.
