We were honoured to welcome @lawlessj to celebrate the 30 Year Anniversary of the Dillon's Cross project. The project has provided vital educational and social support to the partners and families of prisoners, addressing the often-overlooked challenges they face.

Today's lunchtime concert at the NCH was certainly a trip to the opera, as soprano Deirdre Higgin's voice boomed across the stage and conductor Kristian Sallinen lead our NSO through each spectacular piece. What a powerful afternoon show! 💥
