What the charity does
The Prison Choir Project is a charity whose objectives are to rehabilitate prisoners, ex-offenders and people suffering mental illness through the study and performance of opera, song, and choral music. We hope to offer a pathway to reduced reoffending by building self-esteem, encouraging personal development and improving employable soft skills for all those involved.
