There is a small piece of Scotland living and thriving here on the Isle of Wight – in the form of the Isle of Wight Scottish Fiddlers.

They are an open access community group dedicated to raising money for good causes, while giving its members an opportunity to enjoy playing the traditional fiddle music of Scotland and other countries.   The group is almost entirely self-financing and does not charge for performances or travelling expenses when playing at concerts across the Island.

Their concerts at the Apollo are to raise funds for the Juba charity, whose purpose is to promote understanding of the needs and to support the Government of Southern Sudan, in order to improve clinical services through the development of education and training.

Tickets, price £10, are on sale at the Apollo box office  as follows:

• 2 February-16 February 2013 (excluding Sunday) between 11.00am-2.00pm; and
• 6-9 February and 13-16 February between 6.45-9.30pm.
