Story

I live on Eel Pie Island in Twickenham and have been playing the trumpet since I was four. I often play on my balcony to share my music with people passing by. People have called me The Boy On The Balcony, and sometimes they even join in and clap. 

I will be playing my trumpet in front of hospital receptions every day in the 12 days of Christmas. Come and join in! 

25th December @11.00 Watford General Hospital
26th December @11.00 Hemel Hempstead Hospital, HP2 4AD
27th December @11.00 West Middlesex University Hospital
28th December @11.00 Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, SW10 9NH
29th December @11.00 Charing Cross Hospital
30th December @11.00 St Bartholomew’s Hospital 
31st December @11.00 St Thomas' Hospital, SE1 7EH

1st January 2022 @11.00 Great Ormond Street Hospital
2nd January @11.00  Guy's Hospital, SE1 9RT
3rd January @11.00 University College Hospital
4th January @11.00 King's College Hospital, SE5 9RS

5th January @11.00 Kingston Hospital

I will be playing:

  • Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer
  • Jingle Bells
  • Good King Wenceslas
  • Deck the Halls
  • We Wish You a Merry Christmas
  • O Come, All Ye Faithful

That makes 6 songs. If you could donate £6 for a set, or even £1 for each day of Christmas (£12), think what a difference we could make!

Please help me to help children who don't have a warm place to be this Christmas. Thank you for your support.
