Peña Folklórica Boliviana – Live Bolivian Folkloric Party
in support of the
Bolivian Amazon Rain Forest Appeal
CANCELLED!
Dear friends and supporters,
It is with the greatest regret that we would like to inform you that we have had to make the difficult decision to cancel the Bolivian Folk Party Fundraiser on the 30th November.
Due to current events happening in Bolivia our community is going through a very difficult time and the spirit of celebration is diminished; as a result we haven’t had as many confirmed bookings to make this event possible. We hope you can appreciate that Friends of Bolivia, as a charity, has to manage its funds responsibly and without confirmed bookings a party of this size is likely to make huge losses.
Therefore, the Friends of Bolivia committee would like to offer you our sincerest apologies for this cancellation and regret any inconvenience this may have caused you.
We are working on rescheduling this event and we will be notifying you of the new date in due course in the new year.
If you have purchased tickets for this event, please rest assured that we will refund your money without delay. Should you have questions, please get in touch with us at info [at] friendsofbolivia.org.uk.
Sincerely,
Friends of Bolivia Committee

CANCELLATION
It is with the greatest regret that we have to inform you that we are cancelling the Fundraiser BBQ which was due to be held on Sunday 27th August.
This wasn’t an easy decision to make but we haven’t had as many confirmed bookings as in previous years. We hope you can appreciate that FoB, as a charity, has to manage its funds responsibly and without confirmed bookings a party of that size is likely to make huge losses.
Therefore, on behalf of the committee, I would like to apologise for the cancellation and regret any inconvenience this may cause you.
