On 6 July, I had the pleasure to introduce a concert by the King Solomon Academy Orchestra at La Paz Hospital in Madrid.
The British Embassy has a long and happy relationship with La Paz Hospital, including hosting an annual Christmas party for the children who are patients there. They have also designed the official Embassy Christmas card for the past two years. This relationship is very precious to us.
King Solomon Academy is a remarkable school in London, which has an outstanding focus on excellence. As part of this they encourage all of their students to learn a musical instrument. It is a school of inspired teachers, and inspiring pupils.
So it was a privilege for us to be able to help bring together the King Solomon Academy Orchestra and La Paz Hospital at the concert on 6 July.
It was a wonderful performance!
And afterwards it was our pleasure to welcome the pupils and teachers of King Solomon Academy to the Embassy.
