It is wonderful to have the value of our work recognised in this way. We are proudly attending, representing OPUS and our brilliant colleagues who continue working tirelessly to make our work so successful and impactful. We also carry thoughts of our amazing partners across the health and social care sectors who always give so much of themselves to support music-making. We shall raise a very fancy cake to you all!”
Cutts further reflected on the importance of the event, adding, “What a great occasion to celebrate the wonderful and rich array of creative and cultural talent we have in the United Kingdom. It was wonderful to see the recognition for individuals and organisations who bring health, happiness, and prosperity to every corner of the UK. I take from this event a renewed energy to drive forward our mission of championing music within health and social care, alongside a real pride for what we can achieve when we work hand-in-hand with our partners in healthcare. It was notable how much of a role music has played in the occasion today, providing a backdrop of comfort and celebration. It reminds me that music plays such an important part in most of our lives, and should continue to do so in sickness and in health.”
Molly Davies, OPUS Marketing and Communications Manager, expressed her gratitude for the invitation, stating, “It was an honour to be invited to such a prestigious event. It was a beautifully sunny day to celebrate the creative industries, and wonderful that so many creatives had been invited. The royal band were a personal highlight providing a continual soundtrack to the day. Music is such a big part of what we do and it felt very poignant that the band played such an important role in today’s celebrations bringing joy and feeling to the festivities. We enjoyed the tea and cake, strolling through the beautifully kept Palace gardens, and chatting to HRH Camilla, the Queen of arts.”
