Scottish Tribute to a Champion for the London Homeless
The award winning London Branch Dem Team delighted, entertained and taught over 50 guests at a Scottish Evening held at The Connection at St Martin-in-the-Fields, Trafalgar Square, London ( 14th May ) . It was held to commemorate the life of Robert Isles, who had been President of the Friends of The Connection and previously Deputy Director of St Martin’s Social Care Unit, predecessor of The Connection in its work for homeless people in Central London.

The team presented a wide variety of dances, group and solo, and joined pipers and reciters of Scottish verse.

Over £200 was raised for the work of The Connection. Representing The Connection Giles Andrews, one of the organisers, commented “We were delighted the RSCDS have helped us in our work for homeless people in London. The dancers provided an invaluable part of a very successful evening.”
