Some experiences remind us how important it is to support one another, especially during difficult times.

The past couple of years have been challenging for our family and during that time, One Dream One Wish (Σύνδεσμος Ένα Όνειρο μια Ευχή) stood by us and offered us valuable support. We will always be grateful for their kindness and the difference they make to families facing difficult circumstances.

Now we would love to give something back by organising Live Music for Hope, an evening of music, community and giving back.

Davey Woodford & Friends, featuring special guest Zach Woodford, will be performing, with more musicians potentially joining us on the night.

All net proceeds will go to One Dream One Wish, supporting their wonderful work with children and families affected by cancer.

We would love for you to join us for a special evening and help us support an organisation that has made a real difference to our family.

Please get in touch with me directly via phone or message on 99805183 or WhatsApp/Viber/Messenger for tickets. Every bit of support means a lot.
