Graham Seed the actor who played Nigel Pargetter in The Archers for nearly thirty years is coming to Cambridge.
Guests can buy tickets to the event and hear Graham’s observations on the contentious story line which saw his departure form this iconic programme after such a long time.
Our parent charity will receive the profits from the event – in order to support the work of WinterComfort for the Homeless.
It is fitting that the event will raise money for WinterComfort – as WinterWillow, one of our social enterprises, makes English woven willow coffins and it it was Nigel Pargetta’s last wish to be buried in a woven eco-coffin.
The event will be held at The Law Faculty of the University of Cambridge, between 6.00 and 8.00pm on the 13th April 2011.
You can purchase tickets on the night for £12 or from WinterComfort ahead of the event for only £10.
