Small Strings Evening

On Saturday April 12th The Small Strings Ukulele Band performed at The Club at Mapledurham in a fundraising event for Reading Family Aid.

 It was a fun filled evening with great music enjoyed by well over 100 attendees who all seemed to have a good time.

Fundraising Manager Ruth Perkins compered the night explaining the work of Reading Family Aid and introducing the Band.
​Wendy Howell, our Chair, thanked everyone for coming and supporting us so generously.

We'd like to thank everyone who came and made it such a great evening and for buying so many raffle tickets, having so many goes on our Wheel of Fortune and participating in the Heads and Tails games.
Between these activities and the ticket sales a grand total of  £2282.15 was raised! Yay!

Small Strings performed for free and Mapledurham donated the use of the venue for free, as well as a couple of raffle prizes. We would like to extend huge thanks to both of them without which the evening would not have been possible.

We'd also like to thank various local business that donated raffle prizes:

• Quattros Italian Restaurant in Caversham
• Bina Bengali and Indian Restaurant in Caversham
• Reflex Spinal Health in Caversham
• Loddon Brewery in Dunsden Green
• True Food Co-Op in Emmer Green

Here are a couple of videos of the band and some enthusiastic dancing!
