Report by Malcolm Factor

Greetings, Lovers of Music

We now have tickets available for two more excellent concert outings in November and December.

Please do book your tickets very soon.  Contact Malcolm Factor

We really do need to receive reservations early, so please reply as soon as possible

Your Support is very important. The crisis in the Ukraine goes on. Funds are needed more than ever now. So come and enjoy the music and you will help provide our homeless children in the Ukraine with their new shoes; it being so essential for a child’s development.

You may know, originally we provided shoes for 60 children when we began the Shoe Programme. There are still, in the former Soviet Union, thousands of children living on the streets. They live in appalling conditions. The Tikvah home in Odessa expanded to take in more children; now they care for more than 350 children giving them an home and a future.

So, do please, come to as many concerts as you are able to. As always, you will be listening to one of this countries finest orchestras, playing the very best classical music, performed with world class soloists and conductors. Your enjoyment becomes shoes for a destitute child.
