Bohemia Village Voice

By John Humphries, Aug 2011

St Leonards rocked the other night when Claire Hamill hosted an evening of music at the Crown House to showcase her singing groups and raise some money for charity.
Claire is well known as a singer-songwriter but has branched out into teaching and now has a number of different groups which come together each week to sing and have fun. Saturday July 16 was a themed South American evening to raise money for a charity in Guatemala and ended in style when the whole room sang “Livin’ La Vida Loca”. They were all thrilled to raise £473 which will be spent on food and medicine for the desperately poor people who live in the hills around Quetzeltenango.
