As its Creative Director, Colette Hiller was instrumental in setting up SingLondon in 2007. In 2009, in addition to various song related events, Colette Hiller drove the Street Pianos project which saw pianos placed in London's public spaces, and freely available for people to play. Following the SingLondon initiative, the PingLondon project emerged, deploying ping pong tables across London in 2010 and subsequently extending to major cities across the UK in 2011. Also in 2011, SingLondon produced Search Party which took the form of a treasure hunt across London culminating in a party and which was part of the Cultural Olympiad in the run up to the 2012 Olympics. 2011 also saw SingLondon and Colette Hiller's involvement with Keep Britain Tidy in the form of the singing bins initiative.
