My story
Mary and daughter Eleanor have completed long walks together before (Hadrian's Wall path and the Coast to Coast, with son Edward too). This seemed a really good opportunity to try part of one of the Camino de Santiago routes, as well as fundraising for the Archer Project and CWNN in Sheffield. Mary volunteers with the Archer Project and is a keen singer too. She is a member of one of the Sheffield choirs and knows the many benefits of singing in a group.
The Archer Project is a Sheffield charity which may be found at the back of Sheffield Cathedral. They work with homeless and vulnerable adults providing free and subsidised food, health and hygiene facilities and access to other services.
For more information visit the website archerproject.org.uk. Charity number 1064818.
The Choir with No Name is a national charity which runs choirs with people who've experienced homelessness and marginalisation. Rehearsals are weekly, and afterwards members sit down for a hot meal together. The choir communities become a family where a conventional one may not exist, and empower members to make friends, have fun and get back on a path to a positive future. Currently, there are choirs in London, Birmingham, Brighton, Cardiff, Coventry and Liverpool with the most recently established in Sheffield, where rehearsals are held at the Cathedral.
