Sir.-A superb fundraising concert for the Basingstoke Group of the Wessex Cancer Trust took place at Queen Mary's Hall.

The Army Medical Services Band and Basing Singers performed a variety of music, led by bandmaster Mick Feehily, with the appreciative audience singing and tapping their feet.

A big thank you to all who made this not only a successful event (about £1,000 was raised) but also an evening to remember.

-Judith Blaza, Chairman, Wessex Cancer Trust, Basingstoke Group.

Sir.-STARescue held a collection at The Walks in Basingstoke on March 13 and raised £262.07.

Thank you to everyone who donated towards this sum.

-Shirley King, STARescue, Basingstoke.
