  • Invitation: Debut Album Insights Event

    An update for Echo Vocal Ensemble Debut Album

    Sep 12 2023

    Hi all,

    We wanted to send an update on the debut album that you kindly contributed to earlier this year. Thanks to your help, we are all set to record this October, at St Augustine's Church in Kilburn. 

    To celebrate this, we'd like to invite you to a behind-the-scenes, insights event next month on Sunday 8th October, 5pm-6.30pm, at 1901 Arts Club in London, 7 Exton st, SE1 8UE. You'll see us rehearse some of the music from the album, hear more about the whole process and join us for some refreshments.

    If you're keen to attend, send us a message on echovocalensemble@gmail.com by the end of this month and we'll book you in. Just let us know whether you have any dietary requirements and whether you'd like a plus one. 

    Finally, we have added you to our full mailing list for other Echo updates; you are welcome to unsubscribe at any time if that's preferable. 

    Many thanks and look forward to seeing some of you soon!

    Best wishes, Sarah

    An update for Supporting Afghan families in need

    Apr 13 2023

    We would like to say thank you to everyone who has supported 

     

    We are restructuring Presidium Network and putting together a more comprehensive fundraising model to increase the sustainability of our support so we can support more people in Afghanistan and other crisis zones. 

     

    You will see our new campaigns and new website launch soon explaining more on how we are supporting communities in crisis globally.  

     

    With this money, we have directly sent aid to orphanages, hospitals and helped people live safely in Afghanistan and helped those who needed to seek safe refuge in other countries. 

    All the best
