National Trust Action Saturday 7th November
Combined Climate Choirs Performance outside the National Trust AGM in Swindon.
This will be in support of a motion calling for the Trust to switch its bank account away from Barclay’s. The motion already has wide support within the National Trust so Climate Choir will be singing to give a helpful extra nudge.
Saturday 14th November, Stop Rosebank protest in Cornmarket, organised by XR and other local groups. We’ve said that Oxford Climate Choir can be there and sing. So far, 10 of us have committed to going, but if we could make that 15-20 singers we’d have much more impact out of doors.
Could you come and sing? All are very welcome, regardless of whether you have joined a Climate Choir performance before.
The plan will be as follows:
- 10.15 – 11.15 – rehearsal in Central Oxford – tbc but most likely in New Road Baptist Church in Bonn Square.
- 11.30 – join the protest in Cornmarket. The XR Drumming group will be there too so we will take turns to perform. It’s up to us how long we stay but I’m hoping we could manage an hour or so?
- The main songs will be Burnham Gotta Stop Rosebank and Cry Heart. You can find audio tracks, lyrics and sheet music for these on the Climate Choir Website here.
- We’ll also sing our own easy Stop Rosebank round, which I’ll teach on the day to anyone who doesn’t know it already.
- Wear your Climate Choir t-shirt if you have one, but no problem if you don’t!
