Illustrated Talks. A slide presentation on Mpasa, showing life in a remote Malawi village and detailing some of the work MSP has been doing there. Audiences have been generous in donating funds to support MSP’s work. If you know of a group who would welcome a presentation, or would like to arrange one yourself, please get in touch and let us know. Most of our talks have been in West Sussex.
In 2018 we ran a presentation at an “After Eight” Club in Kent.
A “Commonwealth Big Lunch” at St Mary’s Church, North Stoke, featuring Malawi as the church’s chosen Commonwealth country in the run up to the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in London 16-20 April.
A concert at St Augustine’s Church, Tooting. The programme was a delightful mixture of classic songs and opera favourites, featuring soprano, mezzo soprano and tenor solo voices and nationally renowned accompanist and repetiteur Nicholas Bosworth.
A Concert and Canapes at St Michael’s Church, Amberley, West Sussex. Another opportunity to hear some of the delightful repertoire which was showcased in April in Tooting.
In 2017 we ran A Grand Prize Draw: 6 PRIZES each of 6 bottles of personally selected fine wines, with drinking tips and recommendations. The collection included some champagnes, a celebrated Moldovan red designed to celebrate 25 years of co-operation between Moldova and the USA, and a number of wines which retail in excess of £25.
A Summer Craft Tea Party West Sussex. Teas, cakes and scones; cake stall, Malawi art and crafts, pieces by local artists, quilting materials, books, second hand designer clothes, children’s activities and more.
In 2023, Songs for a summer evening. A concert in Steyning In a delightful privately owned studio with another of our popular wine draws.
