Saltmarsh Farmhouse is opening its delightful gardens to host a special afternoon of music, food and fundraising on Saturday 30th August from 3-7pm in aid of St Wilfrid’s Hospice.

Set in the beautiful surroundings of the farmhouse’s walled & lawned gardens, the event promises a relaxed yet refined atmosphere with live classical music, afternoon tea, and the chance to support a much-loved local charity.

The event is being hosted by Simon Peck, who will introduce a programme of music that includes works by his grandfather, Leonard Peck, a respected local composer. The music will be performed by pianist Vasiliki Zlatkou, with a special vocal performance from Arianne Mamon. The audience can also look forward to well-known pieces by classical greats such as Brahms, Chopin, Liszt, and Debussy.

Guests will be welcomed with a drink on the lawn before enjoying a formal three-course Afternoon Tea served at round tables in the garden.

“This event is not just a celebration of music and family heritage,” said Simon Peck, “but a way to bring people together in support of St Wilfrid’s, whose care means so much to our community.”

Emma Neill, Owner of Saltmarsh Farmhouse, said “We are so excited and honoured to open our gardens up to such a fabulous event, and wonderful cause. We will be posting a full programme soon, so keep an eye on our social media for more details.”

Tickets are available to book now online at saltmarshfarmhouse.co.uk.

Proceeds from the event will go directly to St Wilfrid’s Hospice, helping to fund essential end-of-life care services across East Sussex.
