Established in 1992, LDS gives four formal concerts each year, often accompanied by the Marcel Sinfonia. The choir performs in churches in London’s Docklands, St Paul’s Covent Garden, and occasionally in Southwark Cathedral. The choir has also given concerts in Edinburgh and Dublin. LDS concerts often raise money for a variety of charitable causes: the choir’s annual Christmas events in aid of the homeless charity CRISIS have raised over £37,000 since the millennium. Earlier this year the choir’s concert In Paradisum in Southwark Cathedral raised substantial funds for the Southwark Day Centre for Asylum Seekers. www.londondocklandssingers.org
