Final word from the organisers: "Hi Everyone WE DID IT - A NEW RECORD FOR SHEFFIELD 221 musicians playing together for two sets of Dancers. We raised £984 which has been topped up by a generous supporter, to £1000 WHICH WILL BE SHARED BETWEEN MACMILLAN CANCER SUPPORT AND THE SHEFFIELD INTENSIVE HOME NURSING SERVICE. ... our heartfelt thanks to all who came along and made it a great afternoon. Special thanks to Kelham Island Museum, The Fat Cat, Clough - Ibbotson Hobgoblin Music, and Soar Valley Music and 'Thank Goodness It's Folk', Robin Garside, Trev Lea, and the Session Leaders All of whom supported us in one way or another. A film clip can be seen on Youtube http://youtu.be/R9Y5jt_Y220 thanks to Trev Lea for that. There will be pictures etc available shortly and there should be something in the Telegraph on Friday." (That's the Sheffield Telegraph, folks.) And I add my thanks to all, and especially Ron and Jenny Day, who organised the whole thing.
