The Voices We Carry Choir
Remembering those we love through connection, community and song.
|
Losing someone to suicide can be one of the most painful and isolating experiences a person can face. Alongside grief, many people are left carrying unanswered questions, complex emotions, and a sense of disconnection from others who may not fully understand their experience. At Listening 2 U, we believe that nobody should have to carry that journey alone. |
|
The Voices We Carry Choir has been created as a safe, welcoming community for people who have been bereaved by suicide. It is a space where individuals can come together through the power of music, connection, and shared understanding.
Whether you love singing, haven't sung in years, or simply want to be around others who understand the unique impact of suicide loss, you are warmly welcome.
