Current Charity Appeal: Jessie May Trust
2019 is a special year as it marks the 40th year of the St George Singers choir and the Jessie May Trust was one of the first charities supported by the St George Singers, so when they reached out to us for support, we happily obliged. We are so very proud to have been able to raise so much money this year, not least significantly bolstered by members' efforts to take part in their own challenges!
Jessie May is a charity that provides hospice at home care for terminally ill children in Bristol and the surrounding area. The charity was set up by the parents of Jessica May Purrington, a little girl who died at home aged 4 months, surrounded by her family and her nurses. Jessie May has a team of dedicated nurses who provide care to children and families during a child’s life and after their death. Jessie May Nurses provide vital respite care, emotional support, end of life care, and bereavement support alongside family events that help create treasured memories.

Our Next Charity Appeal: Bristol Blood Bikes
Bristol Blood Bikes supply the South West region with much needed blood whenever necessary. They are an organisation fully funded on donations only and are an important service in Bristol. More information to come.
Who do we support?
Each year we choose a charity, often local to Bristol, to support. We try to check that the charity does not spend too much money on overheads so that our donations always go to help those in need. We often raise upwards of £3000 per year towards each charity and invite spokespeople from the charity to come and talk at each concert about the work that they do.
