The third exhibition of Simon’s fantastic art work was held in The Gallery in Birkenhead Park, April 29th to 6th May. It was opened by The Eye Fund patron, Mike McCartney.
Invited guests enjoyed a preview of the exhibition. The Wirral Potters and members of The Wirral Society of the Blind and Partially Sighted craft group were inspired by Simon’s designs to create some amazing pieces.
Simon’s brother, Phil, proposed a toast to him with champagne kindly donated by Paul McCartney.
The exhibition ran for nine days and raised £1500 for the charity.
WONDERFUL!
