25th Anniversary dinner with HRH, The Duchess of Edinburgh at Powderham Castle raises £17,000

Anniversary dinner fundraising success

Last week we held a celebratory 25th Anniversary dinner with HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh at Powderham Castle. Penny Adie, Founder of the Festival and Tamsin Waley-Cohen, Artistic Director since 2020, attended with 120 Festival supporters. In his after-dinner speech, BBC Radio 3 presenter Petroc Trelawny referred to the Festival as ‘A glittering jewel in the crown of music making a vital cultural force…of national importance.’

The event was hosted by Andrew Welch, Chair, and the Trustees of The Two Moors Festival who brought friends and supporters to the party. The event was sponsored by Arbuthnot Latham. There was a silent auction and the whole event raised over £17,000 to go towards this year’s Festival.
