ABOUT
I am passionate about supporting great local & national charities - especially ones with 'get up and (thoughtful) go'. in the last 20+ years we have together raised over £500,000 for various charities through ceilidhs, cricket, concerts, auctions and pond dipping. Charities we have supported in the past are listed at the bottom here. The Hymns is currently proud to notably support the three named below.
1. The Wye & Usk Foundation (reg charity : 1080319) manages habitat restoration over 1,500km of main river and tributaries through Welsh border country for the Wye & Usk, and carries out educational projects with children in the Welsh borders.
2. St Stephens, Old Radnor, is one of the finest medieval churches in Wales, and it is in the lee of this church that The Hymns Farm sits. The church is in need of some repair. If you would like to help, do send a cheque to ‘St Stephen’s Church, Old Radnor’ and address it to The Church Warden, St Stephens, Old Radnor, Powys LD8 2RH
3. The National Gardens Scheme, gardens open for charity. One of the most amazing charities, which has donated around £2.5mm nationally a year to cancer support and care, the hospice movement, nursing and the Parkinsons charity. In Powys, the beautiful county, in which The Hymns is based, the owners of beautiful gardens have raised over £30,000 towards the national total each year. We hope you will visit some of them.
Other charities we have supported include : Men's Sheds, Helmsley Walled Garden, Friends of Friendless Churches (and the Ancient Monuments Society), NHS Charities Together, The Windsor Leadership Trust, Black Mountains College Project, St Michael & All Angels Lyonshall Parish Church, St Peter's Titley Parish Church, Goldsmiths Company Charity, Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, Pulmonary Fibrosis Trust & Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis, The University of Glasgow COVID 19 Appeal Fund, Clean-up UK, Centre for Alternative Technology, Practical Action, Altzheimers Disease Assoc, Age Concern, The Samaritans, The Thoresby Society, Oak Tree Farm Project, The Carers Association, The Red Cross, Cystic Fibrosis, Spinal Injuries Scotland, Jubilee Sailing Trust, Beyond Ourselves, Children in the Wilderness, Prader Willis Syndrome UK, Erskine Appeal, Chas, Wellchild, Combat Stress, The National Blind Childrens Society & Guide Dogs for The Blind, Tusk Trust, The Zoological Society of London, WWF-UK, IDCF, Streetscape, The Landmark Trust, The Asia Scotland Institute, Human Rights Watch, Macmillan, Hospice UK, Marie Curie, The Queens Nursing Institute, Carers Trust, Perennial, Parkinsons, MS Society and The National Autistic Society, and, and …
