Barts Charity Spring Updates
Choir members and friends will be aware of our ongoing partnership with Barts Charity, supporting them in their vital work transforming lives in East London.
Barts Charity are one of the main organisations taking part in the Hackney Half Marathon this year and as such have some places available to their supporters. They have a few free places available for any keen runners in the choir. They have a minimum sponsorship target of £350 but would be able to waive the usual £25 entry fee for any choir members. Anyone who is interested can contact Tom Murtagh for registration details. Information about the event is available here: Hackney Half Charity Places – Barts Charity
March 2026 is Free Will month and Barts Charity offers the opportunity for any choir members to be able to write or update their own will for free via their partners, Octopus Legacy. All of the information about this offer is available on their Gifts in Wills webpage here: Leave a gift in your Will – Barts Charity.
