3rd December 2011 -

"24 personal thanks to those of you who came to sing at Birmingham Cathedral today for Edward's Trust's annual Remembrance Event. You did extraordinarily well in each and every one of your performances. and exceptionally well with 'Lean on Me' - it was absolutely the best I have ever heard you sing.

A very special thank you to Simon Maxted who took the lead with guitar and guided us through our steps.

Before leaving the Cathedral I received significant feedback from several staff members and bereaved parents alike, many of whom said they felt 'uplifted by the choir's singing' and asked me to pass on their appreciation to you.

I am proud of you all. Thank you again."

Warmth,

Blue
