Choir group donates hundreds of Easter eggs to Skipton good causes

Monday, 30 March 2026 07:31

Easter eggs collected by the All Together Now Choir (ATN).

A local choir group has collected 800 Easter eggs for a number of good causes.

All Together Now Choir (ATN), which has choirs in Skipton, Harrogate, Baildon and Bingley, held its annual collection over the past three weeks and has topped last year’s total of 644.

In the Skipton area, they’ve gone to Skipton Food Bank, Airedale hospital children’s ward and Skipton and Shipley Young Carers.

The All Together Now Choir has topped last year's Easter egg collection of 644.

In the Harrogate area, the group have split nearly 200 eggs between New Beginnings, Just B, HELP and Supporting older People (SOP).

Chris Kemp, the choir’s Musical Director, said:

“800 Easter Eggs is just an insane amount and this is all down to you and your incredible kindness and generosity!”

ATN is always looking for new choir members - with no audition needed.

The group sings at a variety of functions and events, including Piece Hall in Halifax, Ripon Cathedral and St George’s Hall in Bradford.

This year they will be singing at Newby Hall, Haworth Steam Punk, Fountains Abbey and St Peter’s Church.

Find out more about the group via social media here.
