The Silver Bough Ceilidh Band helped to raise £800 for Oxfordshire-based Medic Assist International (MAI) at an all-age Barn Dance hosted by the Church of St Peter and St Paul, Deddington in support of MAI’s work in Embo, South Africa on 13 April.

The event was organized by MAI in conjunction with Banbury Community Church and the Church of St Peter and St Paul to raise funds in support of the HIV and AIDS caregiver team based at Embo Community Church, South Africa. Steve Travis, Executive Director, MAI said that: ‘Every ticket sold is going to help community caregivers to provide the home-based care and support that is vital to vulnerable and marginalized people with HIV and AIDS. The remarkable sum of £800 raised from the event will also help Embo’s vision for the work to be locally sustainable, so that community care can be provided to those that need it, for as long as it is needed.’
