The Whittaker Library received flyers in the post today:-

This isn't music information - it's helping other folk hear music.
Yesterday morning, 'Whittaker' did a sponsored swim of 100 lengths to raise money for RNID's Centenary Appeal. If you're a musician, you'll appreciate the value of research into hearing loss.
Please consider supporting this sponsored swim - further information (and 'Whittaker' revealed) here.
