The Havering Concert Orchestra is a friendly community orchestra run by musicians who love performing great classical music for local audiences.
Every concert involves considerable costs — from hiring rehearsal and concert venues to engaging our conductor and hiring the music we perform. Our management team is entirely voluntary, but those essential costs still have to be met.
Your support helps us continue doing what we love: bringing live orchestral music to our local community.
Come to a concert
Buying a ticket is one of the simplest ways to support us — and, of course, we’d much rather see you in the audience!
Make a donation
Every donation, large or small, helps us meet the costs of rehearsals, concerts and music hire. Donate to the HCO.
Tell someone about us
Perhaps the most valuable thing you can do costs nothing. Tell your friends, family and neighbours about the HCO and invite them to a concert
Register with us For Gift Aid – If you make donations to us and are a tax payer, and register with us for GiftAid, this increases the value of any donation you make, because the government gives us an extra 25%. It reduces your tax too, especially if you are a higher rate tax payer.
