The Future of Social Media

Unfortunately none of us has a crystal ball, but the future of Social Media is assured as one that will become an even more integral part of society, allowing people to share and interact with one another around the world in real time.

Social Media has provided a platform that enables users to contribute directly to debates and discussions, and one that has opened up a global social community that just a few years ago was unthought-of. Social Media has become totally integrated with mass media, bringing personalised experiences to a worldwide audience and letting everyone become journalists and commentators if they wish.

Evening of Baroque Music in Sotogrande Raises Money for Local Children’s Charity

 

Evening of Baroque Music in Sotogrande Raises Money for Local Children’s Charity

A special charity event to raise money for Casa Abril, a residential home for children in San Roque, was held in the grounds of a beautiful villa in Sotogrande. A fortunate group of people had bought tickets for the romantic candlelit evening of Baroque music played by The London Soloists, a trio that included musicians from The London Philharmonic Orchestra. After a welcome reception of Cava and canapés, the soothing strains of classical sonatas wafted over the nearby hills, with compositions from esteemed composers from the era including Vivaldi and J. S. Bach.

Sponsored by Grupo Mercedes Sotogrande, over €1,500 was raised during the night which included proceeds from the superb Raffle prizes generously donated by local businesses. One lucky child will be the beneficiary of a replica Mercedes children’s car!

Organised by Mariposa Events, the evening was such a success that further charity occasions will be held in the near future.
