the best of them. The story rattled along
at a great pace and the lively songs, corny
jokes and clever choreography kept us
engaged and entertained.
WINCHESTER
VILLAGES
TRUST
The income from this trust is available to
provide assistance for those in need,
where and when help is not available from
public funds, or to help in emergencies.
This may include:
1) Grants of money to relieve sudden
distress, sickness or infirmity.
Peter Pan gave TOADS the opportunity of
involving many of their junior members in
the production and the seventeen children
were fantastic on stage, not least Peter
Pan who appeared in most of the scenes.
A huge ‘well done!’ to every single one of
them.
2) Payment of transport costs for people
entering hospital or residential homes
or for relatives visiting such persons.
3) Gifts in kind to help those in need such
as furniture, bedding, clothing, food,
fuel and heating appliances.
4) Provision of tools, books, fees for
examinations or tuition or travelling
expenses to help obtain employment.
5) Help for children and young persons to
take part in extra curricular school
activities where parents cannot afford
these costs.
A particularly effective aspect of the show
was the musicians playing in the ‘pit’ to
music written and arranged by Dave Cox.
Dave was a great friend to TOADS and
had worked on many of their shows. His
unexpected death mid-way through
rehearsals came as a great shock. His
wife, Diane showed great strength by
continuing in her role as director and along
with TOADS members created a fantastic
show. The show was dedicated to Dave
and was a fitting tribute to a much-loved
and talented man.
