    Amber Trust Concert

    Derek Paravicini, the first beneficiary of the Amber Trust, is blind and autistic and a world famous pianist.  The concert is a chance to see him live in Willesden Green!  At Anson School, 9th July  7 p..m.   He plays all kinds of music, plays requests from the audience, improvises on notes given to him by the audience – so entertaining and astonishing …

    The Amber Trust supports musical children (from toddlers to young adults) who may be blind or partially sighted , maybe with other disabilities.  For their beneficiaries, “music is not a pastime but a lifeline”.

    Other beneficiaries of the Trust will be playing, the school choir will sing and it will be an entertaining and heart-warming occasion.  Tickets are £20, £10 concessions including wine and light refreshments after the concert.  

    Please come and support this worthwhile charity, at the same time enjoying a concert to remember.

  • Please support the funding application for the Queen’s Park sandpit

    Update

    The application has been granted £45,000 which is enough to reach the target. The work can now go forward.

    An application has been submitted to Brent Council for a grant for improvements for the sandpit play area in Queen’s Park. The decision on this will be made by local residents following presentations at a “Decision Day” event.

    You can support this in two ways:

    • Go to the Decision Day event at St Augustine’s High School, Oxford Road, NW6 5SN. This is on the 18th June, from 13.00 to 15.30. The event is free, but you need to book tickets at: Tickets for Kilburn & Kensal Rise Decision Day.

    More information is available on the Brent Council website: You Decide.

    Notes:

    • The money for this comes from the Community Infrastructure Levy (sometimes referred to as “Section 106 “) from developers, not general Council income.

    • The City of London Corporation Open Spaces Department does not have a pot of gold.
