The Friends of the East Riding Youth Orchestras held two very successful fundraising events in Beverley recently. A total of £278 was collected during a two hour busking session at the Tesco store on Saturday 19th December, when they were also presented with a donation of £250 from Tesco as part of their “Community Champion” scheme.
On Monday 21st December they also held an all day playing and bag-packing session at Morrisons, when a magnificent total of £1,384 was raised. The money will be used to help to subsidise a forthcoming summer tour to northern Italy by the Youth Orchestra, and to provide new music and equipment for other ensembles.
The FERYO would like to thank all those who gave so generously at these two fundraising events, and would wish everyone a happy Christmas.
