So Why are These Men Accepting This Massive Challenge?

 Hear the overwhelmingly positive experience for the men who previously took part in

Men United in Song !



“The hard work paid off! Thanks for finding something in us that most didn’t know we had!”


“Amazing, I never thought in a million years I would ever sing in front of hundreds of people!”


“Fantastic experience from the first rehearsal... thanks for getting us all through the journey!"


"We did it, what an amazing feeling… I’m so grateful to be part of it all!”


“What a great experience, would do it all again in a heartbeat!”


No previous experience is necessary, just a willingness to step outside your

comfort zone, get stuck in and give it a go...

everyone’s in the same boat, and it’s all about the journey!


William, from Peterborough, says “When I saw the Men United in Song flyer, I jumped

at the chance to get involved! I'd recently moved to Peterborough and I was looking for a way to get involved in the community and start building a social group, and this was the perfect opportunity! I come from a musical background but hadn't sung in a group in almost 20 years, and it was really great to get back into singing, and to raise money for a fantastic charity in the process!


The overall costs of a project this size approach  £10,000.  After we’ve covered our costs, every pound we raise through ticket sales, business sponsors of the project etc. will be donated to Prostate Cancer UK to help fight this awful disease. On the way, the wonderful men who have given up so much of their time will raise awareness of this killer cancer and further help the cause. At the same time, they will develop skills they may not have known they had, learn new techniques and, just through the act of singing, help their own physical and mental health. It's a win-win situation.

They will also be asked to help raise funds for PCUK and can do so in so many ways...Get sponsored to lose a few pounds, keep silent, or only sing instead of talking, for a day, quit smoking or drinking for a month, or put on an event of their own. 


All you great people involved in this can also bring attention from your contacts. Do you have friends in business? Would they be willing to sponsor this worthy cause? 


A similar project last year raised £37,000 and may have saved countless lives. Let's beat that and help put this avoidable killer away forever! 



Men United in Singing is partnered with

Prostate Cancer UK.


Early diagnosis of this cancer is vital.

John Swayne struggled to get a diagnosis from his GP 
When John  was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer in May 2019, he was told he had about two years to live. However, he is now “back to normal” thanks to hormone therapy drugs that have kept his cancer under control. Swayne, 59, from Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, struggled to get a diagnosis from his GP but was eventually told he had metastatic prostate cancer that had spread to his bones. A few months later he began a course of six sessions of chemotherapy that “completely wiped him out”. John is now taking the hormone drug bicalutamide, a once-a-day tablet that stops testosterone from reaching cancer cells. He continues to run a carpentry and joinery business and has said:

“I’ve got an 11-month old granddaughter and my daughter is got married last year. Both of those are things I never thought I’d see when I got diagnosed. I’ve got a lot to live for.”

Let your business be the chorus behind our cause at Men United in Song


This project needs help from your business. Become a pivotal part of Men United in Song, where every note supports a noble cause. Step into the spotlight where your business values and social impact sing in unison. 


As a distinguished local business leader, you can amplify your brand’s visibility and goodwill by partnering with the Radcliffe on Trent Male Voice Choir and our ‘Men United in Song’ initiative.  

This exceptional project isn’t just about music – it’s a powerful platform for social responsibility, community engagement and brand promotion.

Men United in Song invites at least 40 local volunteers with little or no singing experience to embark on a musical journey, culminating in a spectacular concert, in front of 600+ people, at Southwell Minster in May 2024, supporting Prostate Cancer UK. 

What we need

We’re seeking support from local businesses, including a main local sponsor whose logo will be on all our promotional material and feature prominently at the concert. 

We hope your support will cover our costs and allow us to donate all the money we raise to charity. 

Any support you can give – whether donations or helping us to promote the cause and the concert – will make a significant impact. 

With an estimated budget of around £8,000, any contribution you make will ensure the event thrives and maximises its support for Prostate Cancer UK. 

You can choose from several sponsorship packages to suit your business needs and involvement level, from being our main sponsor to supporting specific aspects of the event, like the music, venue and marketing.

Your involvement will contribute to a noble cause and immerse you and your business in a world of camaraderie, fun and well-being. 

And, if you can help persuade some of your colleagues to become volunteer singers, so much the better!


By supporting Men United in Song, your business will benefit: 

Enhanced brand visibility: Align your brand with a noble cause. Your logo and message will reach a diverse and engaged audience, showcased in all our promotional materials, at the concert and across our social media and marketing campaigns.

Community engagement: Show your commitment to Nottinghamshire’s community. This sponsorship offers a tangible way to support local culture, health and well-being.

Corporate social responsibility: Directly contribute to combatting prostate cancer, a potentially fatal illness affecting one in eight men in the UK. Your support will ensure that all fundraising efforts from this event go directly to Prostate Cancer UK, reflecting your brand’s dedication to making a meaningful difference.

Networking and relationships: Connect with other local business leaders, volunteers and audiences. Your involvement will open doors to new business opportunities and community ties.

Employee engagement: Encourage your team to participate or volunteer. It’s an opportunity for them to develop skills, bond as a team and engage in fulfilling community service.
