We had the amazing toe tapping The Ceili House Band on board last night, such a fantastic night. But before they entertained us, we had a film crew on board filming a documentary with the band and the wonderful Patrick Darling. Patrick has MND, and is no longer able to sing and play with the band, but this young man hasn't given up, through technology and many hours of recordings, AI is enabling him to do what he loves best.

On Saturday 10th October, we will be hosting Patrick and the Ceili band for a fabulous night of music to help raise money for MND.

Doors will open 7.30pm, music from 8pm, everyone welcome, dont miss out on this great night.
