  The BBC Performing Arts Fund, in association with Making Music, has awarded over £200,000 to choirs and singing groups from around the UK through its Choral Ambition scheme.

The fund is for adult or youth choirs (excluding those funded by Local Authorities) of any genre. From the 350 applications that were received, 98 choirs - with a total of almost 6,000 choir members between them - will receive funding.

The grant will be used towards 14 commissions of new music and 84 projects including training and development, masterclasses, workshops and events to attract new members.
