We are delighted to report that the retiring collection for the charity The Simon Trust after our concert on 22 June, plus donations made after the event because of Wi-Fi issues in the church, raised a grand total of £870.31! This means that the amount we have helped raise for charity since our concert programme restarted after the pandemic in October 2021 is £12,350!

Our picture shows the Chair and Founder of the charity, Sally Lawrence, making her excellent appeal to our audience and choir members during the interval of the concert. She's laughing - and that's before she knew the amount raised!

Thanks to everyone who contributed so generously.
