This is sad news. Tim was so generous with his time with me in my early 20s when I was working out which direction to take in life. I learnt so much from the coaching sessions I had with him. Such a kind, knowledgable and energetic man. theguardian.com/stage/2024/nov…

If you are near E17 next Sunday, please go along and support my good friend Tom with his fantastic Messiah which has become a staple of Walthamstow life over the last decade!

Just rewatched this video in light of the massively challenging times for my friends and colleagues at WNO. My old school friend (state school, btw) Fiona smashing out Santuzza. Let’s hope the governments can find some money and maybe override the arms-length principle?

Please support my good friend Nadine Benjamin MBE if you can spare anything, and send her positive thoughts if you can’t.
