On the 15th of August 2025, the picturesque grounds of Old Park Meadow Natural Burial Ground welcomed friends and family to a heartwarming live music event featuring the enchanting vocals of Nancy May. More than just a delightful evening of music, the event successfully raised over £1000 for the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance, a charity critical to providing life-saving care across the region.

On a warm summer’s evening friends and families enjoyed a relaxed atmosphere by bringing their own picnic blankets and baskets, appreciating the serene surroundings and being serenaded by the exceptional talent of Nancy May. Nancy performed a set that resonated with all those who attended, ranging from popular classics to contemporary favourites, ensuring there was something for everyone to enjoy.

"It was such a joy to perform in such a beautiful setting and for such a wonderful cause," said Nancy May. "The energy from friends and families of Old Park Meadow was fantastic and knowing that we were contributing to the incredible work of the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance made it even more special."

Delyse Jackaman, Manager of Old Park Meadow expressed her gratitude for the overwhelming support. "We are absolutely thrilled with the turnout and generosity shown by everyone who attended.

"Events like these not only bring our community together in a truly special way but also make a significant difference to charities like the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance, which relies heavily on public donations. The sight of families enjoying picnics, the beautiful music, and the shared commitment to a great cause truly embodied the spirit of our community."
