SUMMARY:Cheshire Virtuosi Concert in aid of MCH Charity
DESCRIPTION:Music from some of the greatest composers\nThe concert will feature music from some of the greatest composers\, including Louise Farrenc\, the only female teacher at the Paris Conservatoire\, and one of the first women to speak up for equal pay for women in 1850 – 50 years before the suffragettes and Emily Pankhurst. You will hear the nonet that gave her the acclaim to demand equal pay\, and succeed in getting it! \nWe will also perform the very rarely heard Nonet by Nino Rota\, composer of many great film scores including The Godfather.  Commissioned by the Czech Nonet and first performed in 1959\, this is a happy and highly virtuosic piece\, full of the vitality of truly great movie music. \nThe Tears of a Clown\, based on that fantastic 1970’s number one hit\, was recently scored for Nonet by British Horn player Peter Richards. Tears of a Clown arranged for Nonet was commissioned by Andrew Bassey\, bassoonist in Cheshire Virtuosi. The original by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles features bassoon in the opening and recurring riff. \nFinally you will hear another rarely heard piece\, the Duo for Bassoon and Double Bass by the shy and retiring\, yet extraordinarily talented Albert Roussel. This miniature was written as a gift for the amazing double bass virtuoso and conductor\, Serge Koussevitzky\, and it worked because Koussevitzky then programmed an Albert Roussel Symphony in his next season.

SUMMARY:NHS Big Tea 2022
DESCRIPTION:Our much loved NHS Big Tea annual event is back and is bigger and better than ever! As part of Leighton Hospital’s 50th Anniversary year we’re aiming to have 50 tea parties held in support of the charity and we’d love you to be one of them! \nYou can pop the kettle on at home. Share a pot of tea with your colleagues. Take a flask outside with friends and family. Or rally the whole street with a brew\, biscuits\, and bunting! \nLarge or small\, your outpouring of love will help care for those who care for us. \n \nWe have lots of resources to make your event the best it can be. We love it when we can be part of your event\, so please make sure you share your photos and stories on our social media pages using the hashtag #NHSBigTea. \nAll funds raised this year in our name will support three areas which are very important to us and to our supporters. The first is our current campaign for Cancer Services which aims to raise £25\,000 to secure the hypnotherapy service and other much needed help for people living with a cancer diagnosis – find out more here \nOther areas which will receive money from this event include our children’s fund and will also be used to support staff wellbeing and patient experience.

SUMMARY:Make Yourself a Little Bit Famous
DESCRIPTION:How to power up your profile and get known for what you do\, with former BBC TV and radio business journalist\, Penny Haslam.  \n	\n\n		A fundraiser for Mid Cheshire Hospitals Charity Lost Little Ones Appeal \n	\n	Cost – Minimum suggested donation of £20 for the Zoom link to attend the event.\nThe webinar is hosted by Gary Johnson\, The Cat Radio Breakfast Show host\nFrom MCHC – Carole Salmon\, Community Fundraiser\nGuest speaker\, Penny Haslam\, MD\, Bit Famous.\nIt will be interactive throughout and using menti.com for a couple of polls\nIncludes a competition to win a copy of Penny’s business book Make Yourself a Little Bit Famous. And a chance to take her Bit Famous Challenge\, to help you power up your profile\, or that of your organisation.\nUnless you actually want to be a best-kept secret\, the importance of getting exposure for what you do cannot be understated. It’s the difference between standing out in a crowded market and being overlooked\, in favour of the competition. \nBut ‘getting out there’ can be overwhelming and not always comfortable. It can involve networking\, social media\, creating video\, TV and radio interviews\, taking part in podcasts and panel discussions…. \nAnd we worry that we’re wasting our time on activities that don’t net results\, or that we’ll fail to get our message across succinctly and with impact. \nAll of which means we miss out on the valuable benefits of being ‘known\, liked and trusted’. We miss being seen by the very people we’d love to influence! In Penny’s talk\, you will learn: \n\nWhy increasing your visibility is a big part of your job – even if you’d rather it wasn’t\nAn easy way for you to leverage what you know and be seen as an expert\nIdeas for getting exposure that don’t cost you time\, money or embarrassment.\n\nGetting started is key to unlocking all of this of course! And having been a best kept secret herself\, with no clue as to how to ‘get out there’ to benefit her speaker business\, Penny now shares her rock solid approach so you too can get known\, liked and trusted. \n\n		Register for this webinar\n	\n	First Name *Last NameEmail Address *Phone NumberStreet AddressApartment\, suite\, etcTown / CityCountyPost CodeBusiness Name (if applicable):0 / 180I understand and agree that MCH Charity does not accept any responsibility for my involvement in the Make Yourself a Little Bit Famous webinar.
