Burnham hovercraft charity benefits from musical fundraisers

A group of Burnham-On-Sea musicians raised more than £100 for BARB, the charity that runs the town's rescue hovercraft, by performing a concert in the town on Saturday morning (October 21st).

Three young members of Wessex Woodwind Band played a line-up of classical and modern music during the event at Burnham Sailing Club.

Talented young musicians Amy Jandrell and Georgia Fraser played the flute, while Ellen Tiso was on the clarinet. They were directed by organiser Mary Hancock and accompanied by Mary Lawrence - all of whom are pictured here.

A collection at the end raised the sum of £100, which was accepted by BARB crew members Dave Bailey and Roger Flower. "It was a superb event, which was greatly enjoyed by everyone who attended," said Roger. "We are very grateful to Mary Hancock and her team."
