UPDATE on Thursday's fundraising night: £480 raised!
A hugely successful fundraising activity for International Animal Rescue was held on Thursday 20th at Blackheath Folkclub. The event was organised by Lynne who runs the club. Its aim was to raise cash to stop the illegal trade in bear dancing in India. Alan Knight OBE and Director of IAR spoke of the work in which hundreds of bears had been rescued and rehabiliated from this cruel practice. IAR also helps other wild animals ranging from elephants to wild dogs used in dog fighting.
A whopping £480 was raised. Huge thanks go to the extremely talented local performers who made the night go with a blast: Simon Goodwin and son Daniel, Theresa, Kate, Jim Radford, Bob Hooper, Neil & Jerry, Colin and Roger, Bill Crowe, Jennifer and Louise, Frankie, Ed Dylan, Caroline and Baxter, Ken, Ed Dylan, Trevor and John, Lisa.
Special thanks to Woodsie for running the order and Theresa for sorting the raffle.
Great stuff. See you all hopefully on Tuesday next week.

Tuesday 9th June 09
An excellent night featuring a guest appearance from the fantastic Mitch Hiller, playing first on his own then with Simon accompanying on guitar. Duos were a bit of a theme of the night, with Trevor and John, Steve and Alan, and the Moldy Moldy Men. Richard made his first appearance at the club, and provided excellent fiddle accompaniment to a few performers, and joined Neil, Jerry and Caroline in tackling The World Turned Upside Down.
