麻豆官网首页入口 WM listeners help make dreams come true


A ten year old girl's wish to play her violin at the Birmingham Conservatoire was granted with the aid of Ed Doolan and listeners to 麻豆官网首页入口 WM.


The fees for the placement were too high for the family to manage, but Ed and his loyal listeners pitched in to help.


Talented violinist Kimberly Blackwood from Sandwell was spotted whilst playing in a local orchestra by a teacher from the Conservatoire.


She was then offered a place at the school, but with fees standing at 拢1800, her family could not afford for her to go.


Kimberly's mum, Rose, decided to ask 麻豆官网首页入口 WM's Ed Doolan for some help and he invited them onto his programme last Friday (27 June).


Once on the show, Kimberly gave a rendition and the donations started to pour in. By the end of the show the full 拢1800 needed to send Kimberley to the Conservatoire had been raised.


Ed says: "Thanks to the generosity of the 麻豆官网首页入口 WM listeners, we've been able to make a young girl's dreams come true. A talented young lady, she is getting the opportunity to develop her talent even further."


Rose Blackwood adds: "I was overwhelmed by the response of the 麻豆官网首页入口 WM listeners. I was filled with joy and emotion and started crying while talking to them."


The Ed Doolan Show broadcasts on 麻豆官网首页入口 WM every weekday between 10.00am and 1.00pm.
