Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page.
The Fellowes family and friends are putting on a virtual concert to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe. This concert should have been live, back in May, but due to Covid-19 restrictions it could not take place. So we all spent hours practicing, recording, videoing in isolation, and can now bring you a virtual concert!
The first half will contain war-time classics including 'We'll gather Lilacs' and 'We'll Meet Again' to transport you back to 1945. The second half will be in the style of 'Last Night of the Proms’. We encourage you to all sing along with us, from the comfort of your own homes!
The concert will be available to watch on YouTube at 7pm on 26th September at this link:

In the absence of tickets for the event, we are suggesting that people may like to donate to Myeloma UK. This is a cause close close to the hearts of the Fellowes family. In May 2016, Stephen Fellowes was diagnosed with myeloma, a bone marrow cancer. Ten years ago, a diagnosis would have meant a pretty bleak future. The fact that Stephen was able to receive treatment and can now live a normal life is thanks in no small measure to Myeloma UK.
Myeloma UK is the only organisation in the UK focused on myeloma, helping patients live longer with a better quality of life. It is dedicated to accelerating the discovery, development and access to new treatments, while helping patients and their families cope with everything a diagnosis of myeloma brings.
But myeloma still remains an incurable cancer. Myeloma UK receives no government funding and relies on voluntary donations and fundraising activities to carry out its excellent work. Only then can it continue to strive for improved care, ever more effective treatments, and ultimately to find a cure for myeloma.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 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.
