Yesterday evening The Wonderyears had the privilege of being invited, for the second year running, to perform a concert in aid of Parity for the Disabled.  This organised by Barbara Bellmore for The Rotary Club of Fleet at the Moor Court School at Fleet. 

I'm pleased to say that like last year, the concert was a great success.  We were pleasantly surprised at how many were in the audience, given that the weather was extremely cold.  All enjoyed the performance, the audience joining in and dancing along with us.  We are very pleased that not only did the audience have a great time but feel sure that there will be another cheque for a substantial amount raised going to another good cause.  Well done Fleet.
