‘Canalside choir festival in Nottingham to support critical water charities’
Singers from the East Midlands are set to gather in Nottingham to celebrate World Water Day with a special choir festival along the canals. The event, happening on Friday 22 March at Binks Yard, aims to raise funds for important water-based charities including the Canal & River Trust, RNLI West Bridgford, and WaterAid.
