Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am raising money for NYO, the National Youth Orchestra, to ensure the orchestra continues to give other young musicians the fantastic experience I have had.  Every year NYO meets three times and performs in some of the leading UK concert venues.  This year we have played in Leeds Town Hall,  Manchester's Bridgewater Hall ,  Sage Gateshead, Birmingham's Symphony Hall,  the Roundhouse and the Festival Hall, London.  The summer course ends with a performance in London at the Albert Hall as part of the BBC Proms.  This is all possible with the help of sponsorship.  Unfortunately this year there is a shortfall of £40,000 so all orchestra members have been asked to try to raise money to help cover some of the costs of playing at the Proms. 

Any amount will help so thanks for reading my page and hopefully donating.

2/008/09   I am busy on the course preparing for the Proms.  Great to see the support for my fundraising from everybody up in Inverness!  Remember to watch the performance on BBC2 on Saturday 8th August, 7.00 p.m.
