Musicals Night

A fundraising activity will be held on the 17th May 2003. It is encouraging for us that a number of professional musicians and singers have come together to raise a concert in aid of Dar il-Kaptan.

This 'Musicals Night' will be held at the Auditorium St Agatha; professional performers will be interpreting extracts from well-known musicals such as Les Miserables, My Fair Lady, Oliver, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat, Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita and The Phantom of the Opera. Famed local presenters Dr Joe Chetcuti and Ms Christine Delicata will host the evening.

During this major function, Mr Albert Rizzo, auctioneer, will auction a painting by local artist Mr Joe Navarro. There will also be an exhibition of paintings by this artist.

These may be viewed during the intermission while enjoying the refreshments that will be provided.

Tickets at the highly affordable price of Lm5 a ticket will be available from ABC shops and Exotique, as well as from Frank Salt outlets around Malta, and from Dar il-Kaptan in Mtarfa. Should one require any further information, one may call Antonella Agius Micallef on 21450103/4.


Visit by EU Ambassador to Malta, Mr Ronald Gallimore

EU Ambassador to Malta, Mr Ronald Gallimore The EU Ambassador to Malta, Mr Ronald Gallimore, recently paid a visit to Dar il-Kaptan, the Mtarfa respite home for disabled people run by the Foundation for Respite Care Services. The proceeds of the 2002 European Film Festival, which is organised annually by the EU Delegation to Malta, were allocated to Dar il-Kaptan and during his visit, Mr Gallimore presented a cheque to the Foundation.The latter thanked Mr Gallimore and the EU Delegation for choosing Dar il-Kaptan as its beneficiary. The Foundation for Respite Care Services is a non-governmental organisation that offers residential and day respite care to over 200 persons with disability.

While it receives an annual sum from government, finding the finances to cover all the costs involved in running the house and providing an excellent service for its clients is never an easy task for the Foundation. The EU Delegation's donation, therefore, is very valuable since it will help to cover these costs. Mr Gallimore also had the opportunity to have a look at the house and see at first hand how the services offered strive to make Dar il-Kaptan a home from home for its client members.
