We want to say the biggest and most huge thank you to everyone who donated during garden party– we raised over £2800 in donations and that is just incredible. The funds raised will go directly into our Trinity Conservation Campaign , helping to secure Trinty’s past, future and present.
So to everyone who popped a few quid in the buckets or donated to the campaign directly online, we are very grateful.

And, this year the sun really did hold out for Garden Party - didn't it.

Throughout the afternoon the garden was host to family workshops, with circus skills workshop from Invisible Youth and a beautiful puppetry performance by Bunraku Puppetry, followed by puppet making. Dancers from HYPE Dance, a weekly dance group based at Trinity, took over the Main Hall and Fyfe Hall for two flash performances and we welcomed back the ever popular drumming workshops.
Family friendly activities ran until mid afternoon and included a puppetry performance @Jessica Bartolini
