Earlier this month we were hosted at Macquarie for our festive funding event. 

Streetwise Opera, funded by us in 2006, kicked off the Christmas spirit with a few songs (and some audience participation!), then it was time for the pitches. 

We heard from Book Clubs in Schools, Just Like Us, Epilepsy Support Foundation Zimbabwe and the Lotus Flower Trust. Together we made sure each organisation surpassed their target, raising £47,000 and helping each project continue their work driving social change. 

If you weren't able to join us, you can watch the pitches on our YouTube channel and the photos on our Facebook page. There's still time to pay your pledge if you haven't yet, or if you want to make a new donation! 

Thank you for joining us for our festive celebration - we're looking forward to seeing you again on 25th January.
