Telford craft centre returns to swinging sixties
Sounds from the Sixties will be heard in Jackfield on Saturday to raise funds for Midlands Air Ambulance.
The show will feature six-piece live band Tailor Made, alongside a disco and karaoke. Terry Drury and The Travellers will also be performing A capella at the Maws Craft Centre.
One of the event’s organisers, Sandra Higson, said: “We’ve always done a Glenn Millar concert night, so this is a spin-off from that. We’ve got a live band, karaoke, we’re also doing a raffle in aid of the air ambulance, they’re our charity for this event. We choose different charity to raise funds for for each event.
“We’re also running a 60s fancy dress competition and a karaoke competition.
“We’ve raised between £200 and £500 at previous events, it depends how many people come. We’re expecting about 100 people to come for this event.
“At our last Glenn Millar event, we had 180 people. It was packed. This is our first 60s night so it’s a new venture for us. It’ll be quite a bright and lively night, it’ll be brilliant. Tailor Made are brilliant. They really encourage people to dance and sing and jump about.”
Tickets costing £10 are available by calling 01952 885999, 01952 885895, 01952 883030, popping into Janet and Sandra’s Crafts at the craft centre or on the door on the night. The event will run from 6pm to 10.30pm.
There will be a licensed bottle bar, 60s fast food from the tearoom, free parking, 60s fancy dress competition and a 60s karaoke competition.
The event will be held at Maws Craft Centre, Jackfield, TF8 7LS.
