In its 2025/2026 season, Bristol Phoenix Choir are supporting Bristol Drugs Project Creative Communities.

Creative Communities runs weekly groups for adults affected by problematic use of alcohol and other drugs to have fun, create and connect with people who have had similar experiences. Groups provide safe and supportive environments to take part in structured activities including a choir, orchestra and theatre group. Attending helps to increase feelings of connection, confidence and self-esteem while reducing anxiety and depression. They are hosted by a range of arts professionals with support from trained BDP staff and volunteers.

In particular, we are linking with Rising Voices Recovery Choir
Rising Voices Recovery Choir is a place for people to come together, make friends and be uplifted by the power of song. It has been running since 2014 and regularly perform at recovery and public events all over Bristol. The fun and free weekly singing group is for anyone affected by problematic drug or alcohol use – people in recovery or working towards recovery, their families and carers, and those who work
or volunteer in treatment services.
