Harmony benefits from Folk Festival Fundraising

27/7/2022

 
​In July, this year's Bridport Folk Festival was a triumph again, entertaining hundreds of visitors and locals alike with more than 60 acts.

Organiser Chris Deacon said "The Bridport Folk Festival started in 2017 as the dream of a few local folk musicians to provide a meaningful festival of all things folk and at the same time to benefit a chosen charity. Since then, each Festival has been so successful that we've been able to donate thousands of pounds to our chosen local causes." Harmony is lucky enough to have been chosen as the Festival's charity this year, and will benefit financially from the event.

The success of the Festival  is only possible due to many fundraising events undertaken, and the work of many volunteers who support of the festival.  Harmony Trustee Ali Cliffe coordinates that army of volunteers for the festival, which included other Trustees too. She said; "As always we had a great team of volunteers  who helped ensure the festival ran smoothly and enjoyed their time being part of the festival. If anyone would like to join the team next year they are welcome to sign up on the Bridport Folk Festival website and come and enjoy the fun”

Thank you Sandra!

Sandra swims to raise money for Harmony
 
This winter, local woman Sandra Jay Russell has been swimming in the sea to raise funds for Harmony, Bridport’s mental health hub. She regularly swam since November 1st and raised £425 in sponsorship for the charity.
“I've never been a sea swimmer,” says Sandra. “Even at the height of summer I preferred to sit on the beach rather than venture into the sea and risk the cold. But I challenged myself to swim in the sea throughout the winter to raise money for Harmony.  Some days it was really hard, but I thought about the cause and that kept me going. I am really pleased I managed to do it.”
Sandra joined a group of experienced swimmers and acclimatised herself for the challenge of swimming in the cold water of the sea throughout the winter.
“I work as a Psychotherapist and am very aware that sometimes we have to step outside our own comfort zones to make important things happen – so I am really pleased I could practice this for myself. The Harmony Centre staff do so much with little funding and limited resources for people in Bridport who are challenged with issues around their mental health, so I wanted to help them in some way."
Harmony runs a Drop-in that can be visited or contacted during opening hours on 07597 379290, and a Community Front Room (07385 290804).
