A JAZZ club in Oxfordshire has raised more than £3,000 for Ukraine following a concert.
Crowmarsh Jazz, which is a pop-up jazz club that started in December 2020, put on a concert last Saturday (9) in partnership with the Corn Exchange in Wallingford.
The concert sold-out and the money was raised through ticket sales, merchandise, bucket collections and online donations.
Performing was Ben Cummings on trumpet, Clark Tracey on drums, Dave Newton and Maff Potts on piano, Jez Cook on guitar, Steve Kershaw and Curtis Ruiz on double bass and Art Themen on saxophone.
Vimala Rowe and Fleur Stephenson were vocalists and Alina Bzhezhinska was on jazz harp.
John Evans, the Corn Exchange marketing director, said: “Wallingford is certainly sending a big message of support to Ukraine.”
