The event formed part of the Coign Christian Music programme.

Bob Abbott, events coordinator for the programmer, said: “Evergreen Care Trust seeks to serve older and vulnerable adults in the community by improving their circumstances through simple and genuine friendships. Their volunteer befrienders are the cornerstone of what they do. They are committed to the teachings and values of Jesus in all areas of finance, staff, and the wider community. Their work is financed by donations from churches, business, and community support.”
