Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am organising a fundraising recital in aid of Freedom4Girls on Saturday 16th March at 7pm at St Andrew's Church Bedford. I will be playing a varied programme on both cello and piano including Beethoven, Chaminade and my own composition.

People across the world face daily discrimination, prejudice, and violence on the grounds of their sex. An example of such injustices is period poverty, which affects over 10% of girls in the UK alone, many of which miss school due to their periods. Freedom4girls is a charity fighting this urgent issue internationally. They provide period products to people who menstruate, open up health education opportunities, run reusable pad sewing workshops, and contribute to international research projects. Every penny you donate this evening goes directly to this charity. To find out more about their work, I strongly recommend you visit https://www.freedom4girls.co.uk/ .

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thanks for reading; I hope to see you on the 16th!
