A huge thank you to the May Hill Quintet, who performed the beautiful Schubert Quintet at the lovely May Hill House to an audience of around 45 guests.
After the performance, everyone enjoyed tea and delicious homemade cake — the perfect way to spend an afternoon!
We’re delighted to share that the event raised an amazing £550 for Great Oaks Hospice.
💚 Thank you to the musicians, hosts, bakers and everyone who attended for your generous support. Every pound helps us continue providing care for our community.
