11th September - Sing for Water London

On 11th September 2011 I sang with the Bangor Community Choir and 50 choirs from the UK and Ireland at Sing for Water in London. This was to raise money for WaterAid, a charity that aims to provide clean water and sanitation for some of the world's poorest people.

If you'd like to contribute to Water Aid, please go to: JustGiving

You can see a video of one of the songs we sang on YouTube.
