Kate Swallow's Fantastic Fundraiser at the Tipsy Pig
Thank you so much to Kate Swallow for hosting such an enjoyable musical fundraiser at the Tipsy Pig, Craft Alehouse. The photos (courtesy of Stuart Webster Photography) all look incredible and from the photos we can see that everyone loved the event including the music which was organised by both Lucas Greenwood and Phil.
– Kate"We are so overwhelmed and touched by the support of you all. We managed to raise an amazing amount to support Nerve Tumours UK. This is such an important charity to us and the money raised can do so much for the NF community. There was amazing music, cakes, games, raffle, hotdogs, face painting, hair braiding and lovely beer!"
