100km Charity Run for Great Ormond St Hospital Children’s Charity
This February, I’m running 100km to raise money for GOSH Charity. This will be approx 3.5km per day over February. Support a good cause this February by donating, and make a positive difference in the world! 🙂👍

I’ll be posting updates on my JustGiving page as I go on my runs – I may post updates daily or weekly.
Every day, more than 750 seriously ill children and young people from across the UK arrive at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses and conditions and come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.
This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential.

Concert @ Finnish Art Groups Summer Celebration
I’ve been blessed with another opportunity to play at the summer celebration of the Finnish Art Group - on Sat 10th June at 5pm at the Finnish Church. Playing also will be Saira Peter (the worlds first Sufi-Opera singer) - which I’m all very much looking forward to 🙂🎸✨
On the day there will also be an art exhibition, an art workshop, delicious food, and more.
You can even draw during the concert. The theme this year will be climate change, and you can come and view our art/music, and then create your own on this theme at the workshop.
