I teamed up with Camilla Keates who lives in
Woodbridge - she is linked with CRY through the loss of her cousin,
Sebastian English - to set up a yearly music event in this quiet Suffolk
town.
This year, we went for the Rock genre of
music, with three bands performing for us.
Shut Up Shirley, who performed for me last
year; Slippery Penguin, who were very late recruits; and the incredible
Ben Scully, an old friend from school.
The theme of RED was very much stuck to by
everyone attending, and the hall really did shout out 'CRY' everywhere
you looked.
Thank you to Camilla and her gang of friends
for decorating everything. Also, thank you to my family and
friends who helped. With me living in London, they were my minions
who did everything for me in Suffolk.
The night was a huge success, with about 130
people turning up. Combined with the raffle, we managed to raise
about £1200.
Next year I am hoping to go with a more Jazz
themed night.
