Students record CD to raise money for charity

Students in Dolgellau are recording a charity CD to help world-famous opera star Hayley Westenra raise money for unicef.
Working with music therapist Patrick Treadwell, learning disability students at Cerrig Camu and the Owl Project in Dolgellau are currently producing an annual charity CD in support of UNICEF goodwill ambassador Hayley Westenra.
Patrick started producing the CD when Hayley said that she would like fans to donate to UNICEF after being asked what she would like for her birthday in April.
This year’s donation will go to a UNICEF project called Pacific Kids and will be matched nine times by the New Zealand government.
The money will be used to bring safe drinking water, toilets and hand washing facilities to 121 schools in the Solomon Islands and create pre-school opportunities for more than 3,000 children.
Patrick said: “This year’s CD is different to previous CDs in that it has three impressionist style tracks. One of these is a Doctor Who story and uses a lot of electronically produced sound effects including the TARDIS travelling backwards through time and an encounter with the Daleks.
“The TARDIS in the picture was created by Tim at the Owl Project. Tim contributed vocal effects whilst Gary and Levi contributed sound effects. Jenny and Gary have also contributed more traditional vocal tracks. The CD was great fun to make and we hope people enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it. Over the last 10 years our CD has raised over £4,000.”
To order a CD or make a donation contact Patrick Treadwell on 01341 250088.
