Tyndallwoods Summer Garden Party

Judy Dyke, Sir Dominic Cadbury, Trustee and Tina Costello, Chief Executive

Tyndallwoods were pleased to host a Summer Garden Party in support of the Heart of England Community Foundation. Sir Dominic Cadbury, Trustee and Tina Costello, Chief Executive of the Foundation spoke of the work of the charity as it expands its activities to support voluntary and community groups across Birmingham and the Black Country. The work of two such local charities OHMI and Martineau Gardens were showcased at the event.

The One-Handed Musical Instrument Trust addresses the issue that any deficiency in one hand or arm makes traditional instruments unplayable to any reasonable standard. The OHMI Trust challenges technologists and instrument makers to build one-handed instruments that can provide undifferentiated participation in musical life; whether at school, in the home or in professional ensemble.

Guests at the Garden Party enjoyed a performance from 5 local children and their teachers all playing one-handed musical instruments.

Caroline Hutton, Chief Executive of Martineau Gardens, described the beautiful Community Garden, two miles from Birmingham city centre. An oasis for wildlife and a haven of tranquility, the gardens are two and a half acres of organically maintained landscape connecting well-being, education and the natural environment.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you want to support any of the above three charities.
