Three North East GPs organised a concert performed by the European Doctors Orchestra (EDO) this November at The Sage, Gateshead in aid of CLIC Sargent.
The concert was a great success, with over 800 people attending and raising over £7,000. GP Karen Riddle says ‘GPs came from across the UK and Europe to perform at The Sage and we are all delighted that we have been able to support children and young people with cancer with this donation.’
We would like to say a big thank you to Karen and fellow GPs Jonathan Caudle and Dave Tomson for their efforts in organising the event and to all of those involved in the concert.
It costs CLIC Sargent around £3,750 to provide all of our support to one child or young person throughout their cancer journey, so the money raised by the EDO concert could enable us to support another two families.
