Family Choir Club (formerly Raise Your Voice) is a social enterprise based in Oxford, UK. We are building better wellbeing through singing with parents and children of all ages, bringing them together to make music, play and meet other families.
There are loads of ways to get involved with Family Choir Club. Why not check out our calendar to see what takes your fancy?
If you'd like to add yourself to the mailing list to get updates and exclusive goodies, you can sign up here.

Grown Up Choir
Every other week in term time
We love singing together as a family, but sometimes it's good to have dedicated grown up time!
Singing together is a proven way to improve wellbeing, feel more connected and build confidence - we'll do so by learning to sing old and new favourites in beautiful harmony.
All are welcome:
- all levels of singing experience
- parents and non-parents
- all ages from 18+
- book for the whole term at a discount, or pop in to one or two sessions

Pop-up choirs
Weekends and holidays
Our pop-up choirs help parents who want to bring music into their family life, by removing the fear of "getting it wrong" and providing a safe space to play, sing, and enjoy quality time together.
Each session lasts between 45 minutes - 2 hours depending on the event, and each pop-up is carefully planned around a theme to enhance musical learning in a super fun way!
Check the schedule and book
here!
Mini-terms
3-4 weekends in a row, once a term
With time to get stuck in to more music, our mini-terms follow a similar format to our pop-up choirs but last for 3-4 consecutive weekends, and build towards a performance to friends and family.
You can drop in to one, two or three sessions, or book into the whole term at a discount!
