Rock Choir films video at Princess Diana's Althorp family home

M.Davis2 hr ago
A choir has created a music video at the family home of Diana, Princess of Wales, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of her charity.

About 350 members of the Rock Choir performed Make Your Own Kind of Music at Althorp House near Northampton.

The video will raise money for the Diana Award and will be available for the public to watch at the end of next month.

It will include shots of the house and grounds, including the island where the late princess is buried.

The Rock Choir was set up in 2005 by the singer Caroline Redman Usher.

Members do not need to be able to read music and do not have to go through an audition.

There are now 33,000 members in the group's choirs across the UK, including five in Northamptonshire.

They filmed their video of Cass Elliot's 1969 song Make Your Own Kind of Music in locations on the Althorp Estate including the Diana memorial next to the island where the late princess is buried.

The video marks a quarter of a century of the Diana Award , which was "founded on the belief that young people have the power to change the world".

Its deputy chief executive, Alex Holmes, began his voluntary work by setting up an anti-bullying campaign at his school in south Northamptonshire.
