Ep.154 Liberty Choir - Ministry of Arts Podcast

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to MJ Paranzino & Ginny Dougary of Liberty Choir (@libertychoiruk)   The overall aim of Liberty Choirs is to provide for excluded and isolated people (for example, those in secure psychiatric settings or people who are serving custodial sentences) a ‘through the gate’ programme of high-quality singing and social development. It is designed to help develop skills and self-confidence, open up the world of arts through singing and provide access to new social networks as the participants re-enter the wider community.   The Liberty Choir vision is that the reoffending rates among ex-offenders can be significantly reduced through a network of choirs located within prison and the community. We believe that the economic and social case for the choirs is overwhelming.   For more information on the work of Liberty Choir go to https://libertychoir.org/   To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: www.patreon/ministryofarts   For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.ministryofarts.org Email: [email protected] Social Media: @ministryofartsorg Hosted on Acast.
