Exclusive: Vital UK music charity to shut

Exclusive: Vital UK music charity to shut

Further to our report in cracks in the Voices Foundation, which helps improve singing in  schools, we now understand from the charity’s annual report that it is to be shut down.

Some explanation may be due.

The charity’s work reached 35,000 pupils each year. Its disappearance is a great loss.
