Beckenham Acappella is a new community choir in Beckenham, also non-auditioned and sister choir to Palace Acappella. Fresh, enthusiastic and courageous. Both choirs were co-founded by local choir leader Eleanor Rastall and local resident Laura Stevens. Community is of great importance to ... both choirs, as is a safe space to explore and develop our voices and skills." (Eleanor Rastall)
