After more than 2 years in the making - organising and fund raising - our Budget is under pressure due to increased costs beyond our control and we are, with 7 weeks to go, short of cash  -  enough to get there but we'd love to come back home!!

Sadly, this will be my last Concert Tour with the Orchestra - the 18th International Concert Tour  -  as I am standing down as Chairman and Director.   It would be great if I could go with a final flourish in support of this wonderful group after 37 wonderful years as their Leader.

Myself and 50 other members of the Orchestra MADE the plunge on Sunday 2nd June to try and, hopefully,  bridged that financial gap  -  your help still would make a fantastic difference!!

Yours aye

Wallace
