feature Making Every Moment Count

At 19.30 Friday 18th & Saturday 19th January 2013 At Melbourn Village College

Once again, under the directorship of that infamous impresario and painter, Andy Ranner , Foxton Players Youth Group will be presenting Foxton’s very own version of Cinderella (including an adaptation of Strictly Come Dancing) with an ‘all star cast’ including with some who still think they are in their youth!!

Featuring some of Foxton’s top ‘performers’ with Cambridge City Captain Ada Cambridge and Andy Brown playing the two ugly sisters, the indomitable ‘Buttons’ competing with Prince Charming for Cinderella’s affection, and none other than Tessa, in her ‘usual function,’ as the Fairy Godmother.

The ball will take place at the well known ‘Nookie Castle’ in Foxton, where our prince lives and you will find Foxton’s very own ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ with judges played by… well, you’ll have to come along and find out! And of course, our very own Brucie.

This is a must for all the family, so don’t miss this ‘fab-u-lous’ post-Christmas entertainment. To book your tickets pleases phone the booking office on 01223 870067 and ask for Craig or Alesha…!!! Tickets, in due course, will be available from Foxton PO Shop and the White Horse.

The youth group has donated a great deal to charity over the years, and this year the money will be going towards ‘Teenage Cancer Trust,’ a very worthwhile charity and our local project, ‘The Half Pipe project,’ a scheme to build a skate board and scooter cum BMX Park in the village.

Naturally, we are looking for sponsors. If you know of any business or a local person that is willing to participate as a sponsor please contact our Sponsorship Coordinator, Anne, on the above telephone number. If you would like a small advert placed in the programme this can be arranged as well.

Making Every Moment Count

Peter Tingley, Legacy Ambassador The work of the Arthur Rank Hospice goes on day after day, night after night, seven days a week and fifty-two weeks of the year. It is a service provided absolutely free to all and any adult suffering from a life limiting condition and needing support and care. Our staff and volunteers work tirelessly to give full expression to the phrase “making every moment count”. We enrich the lives of patients and families alike with our devoted care and attention be it for an in-patient in the hospice itself, in the patient’s home, or on a day care basis, including therapies, counselling, treatments and physiotherapy etc. In addition we offer extra services to support the family with relief companionship through to bereavement counselling. Our volunteer drivers cover thousands of miles a year transporting patients to and fro treatment centres and our Chaplain co-ordinates the work of other spiritual counsellors from twenty other denominations. In addition our volunteers provide essential in house services such as the tea bar, gardening and as Ward Assistants amongst many others.

The Arthur Rank Hospice is well known throughout the area and we believe that many people know of the charity either because of their own family’s experience or that of a friend or neighbour. It is a privilege to work with so many people from communities and villages and I welcome this opportunity on behalf of our staff and volunteers to thank our many other supporters who by making donations or raising funds help us to continue our work and maintain the high standard of excellence we seek to provide.

There are many ways in which to support the Hospice and our web site sets outs out the various options for your support. We have also found that leaving a gift in your will to help the work of the Charity can be immensely important and valuable. Your gift, of any size, can truly help us ‘make every moment count’.

Visit arhc.org.uk to find out more about our work and how you might be able to help support the charity. Look for advice on how to leave a legacy.
