I didn’t do my post yesterday as we had posted so many times over the weekend that you might have got fed up with hearing from us.
What an amazing event on Saturday. Throughout the Sing-a-thon we sang 133 songs which was truly amazing. Paul won’t need to attend the gym for some time that’s for sure. It was great to see those members of the Forget Me Notes family we don’t see regularly. I think that Jacqui must have danced for at least eleven of the twelve hours, what stamina! Seeing people of all ages sing and express themselves through music was brilliant. You will be keen to know that with the gift aid included we have raised £2000 so far with some money still to come in. Thank you all so much for all your support, it is appreciated so much.
The choir yesterday sang at the second National Dementia Arts Festival. They were great. During the festival this week, we will deliver a presentation, show a film and present our volunteer project through an exhibition of different written and photographic evidence. Forget Me Notes is rapidly becoming a significant player in the Dementia Arts world. This is largely due to all the support you give us.
Take care and speak to you next week.
