Extra Guest - Shrewsbury

We are delighted to have been asked to play at The Extra Guest Event in Shrewsbury on Tuesday, 18th July, 2023.  Links to tickets will be published shortly.

About The Extra Guest

Founded in 2010, The Extra Guest has partnerships with Oxfam and SOS Children’s Villages and supports emergency food-aid and sustainable living projects around the world, focussing always on those areas affected most by poverty and famine.  

In 2009, TEG director Moyra Irving wrote a story in which a group of friends come together to enjoy a sociable meal.

During the course of the dinner a small child appears, holding an empty bowl. As the diners start to notice and greet the little stranger, the child smiles and at once the bowl begins to fill with golden coins.

Everyone realises then that something quite special is happening.

It was this image that inspired Moyra and a group friends to develop the idea of The Extra Guest – a chance for all of us to recognise those in need and to offer the hand of true friendship. By donating a very small amount we can share our good fortune and make a very big difference.

By giving just £1, €1, $1, etc. to this project you help to fund vital food-aid projects around the world so that your meal leaves a lasting and positive legacy.
