On Sunday, 24th November, Sussex Strings hosted a concert at Trinity Church in Willingdon in support of the Children’s Respite Trust. The event was a resounding success, raising £210, which brings their total contribution to the Trust to an impressive £1,285.71.
Sussex Strings, an orchestra based in Willingdon, Eastbourne, has been a dedicated supporter of the Children’s Respite Trust for many years. Their relationship with the Trust began with their first fundraising concert in November 2012, just months after the orchestra was formed in May of the same year. Since then, the group has performed regularly to support CRT, among other causes.
This recent concert marked a significant milestone for Sussex Strings – their 20th performance since their inception. Over the years, the orchestra has raised more than £6,500 for various local charities, showcasing their commitment to making a difference in the community through music.
The Children’s Respite Trust is immensely grateful to Sussex Strings for their ongoing support and dedication. Events like these not only provide essential funds but also bring people together in the spirit of generosity and community. For more information about Sussex Strings please visit their website.
