This historic organ is at risk of being lost forever. Please consider donating to help protect this important piece of our heritage. Every bit helps! Share if you care! https://t.co/ou67iC2XVq

Just back from a very busy night at Our Holy Redeemer. Congratulations to Chris, Mathew, Andrew and Steven for all their hard work and brilliant playing. Katelyn Emerson was fantastic, the Mirrlees was a joy to behold.

4 wks ago I played the organ at London Bridge station. My 1st time playing an organ. Hooked, I got in touch with a local church asking if they’d mind me using their organ for practice. Today was the first time I played for/with others and I loved it. #remembranceday @annalapwood
