OUR CHARITY PARTNER
Our new Charity Partner for Down the Hatch is… the Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus! The biggest gay men’s chorus in the UK – outside of London – is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2025. They are a community chorus where new members are always welcome (no need to audition) to champion the values of Singing, Socialising, and Support together.
Brighton GMC and Down the Hatch comedy club both aim to celebrate diverse life experiences, foster community through art, and entertain in the most fabulous way, so this is a match made in heaven!
Head to brightongmc.org to find out about their shows, book the Chorus for your own event, or join as a new member.
