Sally Latham @sallylatham.bsky.social · 06/02/2026So I went to see Collabro last night at Lichfield Cathedral. Not only are their voices SENSATIONAL but they are amazing role models. Watching them sing For Good as a tribute to their friendship is one of the most positive examples of masculinity I've seen in a long time. #collabro 010
