Festive Singing From Trinity Supporters

Thursday, December 11th, 2008

Several groups of singers will be raising their voices – and funds for Trinity Hospice – during the festive season and we hope you will be able to go along and support one or all of them.

On Monday, December 15 around 30 members of The Fulham & Hammersmith Choral Society will be singing Christmas carols at Hammersmith tube station, between 5.30pm and 7.30pm.

On the same day, the ‘Fun Raisers’ – a group of London ladies –  will be singing traditional Christmas Carols in the ticket office area of Clapham Junction station from 5.45pm until 7.15pm.

A little later in the week, on December 17, Trinity Hospice will benefit from a concert, featuring Laura Mayhew (soprano) and Julius Drake (piano), at St. Olave’s Church, Hart Street, London EC3. Starting at 7.30pm, the concert will include works by Brahms, Hugo Wolf, Donizetti and Villa-Lobos.

Tickets, costing £10 each, are available on the door or, in advance, by contacting Laura Morgan on 020 8255 7262 or lauramorgan@talktalk.net

Have you ever wanted to go to Cuba, China, Peru or Costa Rica, and many more? Or maybe climb Kilimanjaro?

Trinity Hospice have teamed up with some excellent travel and adventure providers to offer you an amazing range of exciting trips and challenges, overseas or nearer to home, at lots of different times of the year!

The trips are a great way to get fit, meet new people, do something you have always wanted – and all for a great cause. There are different levels of difficulty so something to suit all ages and stages.

For each trip there is a minimum fundraising target to cover the cost of the trip and a donation to Trinity. Alternatively, you can opt to pay for the trip yourself and raise as much as you can with no particular target.

The adventure providers we have worked with are listed below – just click to go through to their websites where you can find out plenty more on any trip you are interested in:

Star Art Auction Evening

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

Rebecca Loos joined some of the City of London’s finance elite during a month of turmoil on the markets to raise an extraordinary £25,000 for Trinity Hospice.

Hosted by St. Helen’s Capital, who are based off Bishopsgate and supported by Command Technology Group CEO, Jennifer Allsop, Trinity Trustee, Susan Dark and sponsors Sterling Greenaway and Lovely Bubbly this unique networking evening culminated in an exceptional auction of Star Art.

Among the treasures on offer at the auction was a signed portrait of Kevin Spacey, signed Soundwave art by George Michael and Coldplay, and a special piece of art flown in from Philadelphia especially for the evening donated by former Wimbledon Champion, Martina Navratalova.

By far the most popular lot on the night was the first of four specially commissioned portraits of Rebecca Loos along with the promise that she would customise it with a personal message for the winner. Bidding reached fever pitch when auctioneer Ruari McGirr, (who is also the CEO at St. Helen’s Capital) threw in a double date with Rebecca and St. Helen’s Director Barry Hocken’s daughter, at which point bidding all out to a fantastic £4,000. 

The success of this evening would not have been possible without the hard work and commitment of St. Helen’s director Barry Hocken and his wife Carol, Command Technology CEO Jennifer Allsop and Trinity Trustee, Susan Dark.

Thanks also goes to Sterling Greenaway for printing the beautiful programmes and Lovely Bubbly for donating the ’lovely’ champagne as well as a fabulous surprise auction prize.
