We are delighted to see the launch of the new Christmas single, ‘True Colors’ by the British Paraorchestra featuring the voices of Team GB Paralympic athletes and the Kaos Signing Choir for Deaf & Hearing Children.
The single will be available to download from iTunes on Monday 3 December 2012 – the UN International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
The True Colours Trust is proud to support Kaos with funding towards its core costs as well as contributing towards this initiative; it was a happy coincidence that the Paraorchestra chose this particular song!
