Caper Ceilidh (ft. Fitty Gomash)

After two successful events, raising almost £1500 for charity, Caper Ceilidh is back for round 3. 

Have you ever heard of a capercaillie? What about a "Caper Ceilidh"?!Caper Ceilidhs are a ceilidhs (traditional folk music and dance events) raising money for rewilding and other conservation charities around the UK. Join for a fantastic evening of energetic folk music, a raffle, and dancing, with one of the best ceilidh bands around - Fitty Gomash

All proceeds this time will be donated to the Somerset Eel Recovery Project - a grassroots charity working to protect and bring European eels back to the Somerset Levels. Once plentiful across the Somerset Levels, this migratory fish is now registered as critically endangered throughout its range. Their last event raised just over £400 for Trees For Life and before that raised £1000 for Somerset Wildlands Trust.

If you've never been to a ceilidh before, don't worry. There will be a caller on hand to tell you all the steps. Fancy dress as your favourite native wildlife is non-compulsory but very much encouraged. There will be a prize for the best dressed. However, bear in mind that riotous ceilidh dancing means that you will want to keep layers and extra potentially-eye-gouging-apendages to a minimum. Trainers/ comfortable shoes are highly recommended.
