Each year a charity is nominated to be the recipient of funds raised on the night through ticket sales and donations. This year, being the Bi-centenary of the abolition of the slave trade by William Wilberforce, STOP THE TRAFFIK, received in excess of £2,200 from all who attended 'Amazing Praise'.

  Human trafficking is the fastest growing means by which people are forced into

  slavery and is the third largest source of income for organised crime, exceeded

  only by drugs and arms trafficking.

  STOP THE TRAFFIK is a major global coalition of organisations, networks 

  and community groups whose goal is to demand freedom for every human

  caught in trafficking around the world, with a particular focus on children and 

  young people.


 

Our host for AP'07 was BBC Tees Radio presenter, Mark Turnbull.

Christmas 2007

 

The orchestra was invited to provide the music for the J John Christmas Carol Service at Middlesbrough Town Hall.

 

A superb evening of singing popular Christmas carols, interspersed with J John's inimitable style and delivery - humourous, challenging, and straight to the point! A superb evening.

 

This event was in anticipation of the 'Just 10' series that was planned for the middle of 2008 in Preston Park.
