Dirty Little Dumplings

04/06/2025

A massive thank you to everyone for your incredible patience and support! We’re thrilled to finally share that, together, we’ve raised an amazing £2,000 — double our original goal! 🙌

Thanks to your generosity, half of the funds have already been donated to Teesside Hospice, a charity that means so much to many of us. The other half is going to Music Innovation to help build an even bigger and better fundraiser in the future.

None of this would have been possible without the amazing contributions from our community — every donation, every business that offered space, and every performer who gave their time made this happen. Thank you all! ❤️

Lastly, a big congratulations to Mike, the winner of the grand prize guitar! 🏆🎸 He guessed the closest number of picks - Amazing job, Mike!
