From the Committee of Friends of Milton Mausoleum

To our friends and supporters

We Wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Here we are nearly at the end of a momentous year in all our lives and we have really missed putting on events at the Mausoleum and most of all we have missed you and your support.  We have so many ideas for 2021 and can’t wait to start.

To show our appreciation of your support and friendship in the past, we have had a free raffle this year.  All the members’ and supporters’ names were given a number and the draw took place  at our Zoom Committee meeting! On 1st Dec. 2020.

All of us on the Friends of the Milton Mausoleum Committee send our sincere greetings to you, your family and friends, together with our best wishes for a better year ahead. We will be in touch.

THE FRIENDS OF MILTON MAUSOLEUM AUTUMN UPDATE

It’s been a very quiet year for the volunteers of Milton Mausoleum due to the Covid 19 restrictions, however the building has been open for the month of September, the last month of our season. We were pleased to meet visitors on each Sunday in September and have made some good contacts.

However, we are not able to hold our final event of this year, our popular Annual Christmas concert.  This is so disappointing for our volunteers and supporters alike as we see it as our introduction to the Christmas season and it is always a joyous occasion.

  • Saturday 26th June 2021 – Summer Concert
