The recent ‘Alan Hull Songbook’ gig at the W.I. & Village Hall on 11th July raised a brilliant £1565.50 for local charity, CancerCare.
Tony Farren, from Windermere opened the gig with his unique folk style which was very well received. The amazing Dave Hull-Denholm band (Dave is the frontman of popular band, Lindisfarne) played a 95 minute set of some well-known, and some lesser known songs from the Alan Hull songbook, including: Lady Eleanor, Run For Home, Clear White Light and many more, with enthusiastic assistance from the audience who had a great time singing along too.
The gig was a Sell Out, and the £1565.50 was raised from ticket sales, the bar (supplied by JJ Crossfields and run by Sarah & Charlotte who have also been raising money for CancerCare by taking part in events such as the recent Cross Bay Half Marathon), raffle ticket sales with prizes donated with the enormous generosity of local businesses (see below) and the musicians, who travelled from as far away as Newcastle, and played for light expenses only.
The full Lindisfarne band are touring now and visiting several local venues. To find out more, click here
Grateful thanks to the following local businesses for their donated raffle prizes which included: Weekend Tickets to Kendal Calling, Dinners, Wine, Chocolates and Ten Pin Bowling
