Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

For a while I've been thinking about this for a while now, so it's about time I do something. The government is massively failing people in this country who suffer from mental health problems and I've seen the outcome of this too often amongst people who come to my shows.

I was trying to think of something I could do to raise money for Mind which is a great mental health charity, if the government isn't doing enough then unfortunately charities have to pick up the slack, so this is my small contribution.

The gig is on Friday 14th October at Proud in Camden. It will start at midday and I'll finish at 10pm. I will allow myself toilet breaks when required, but that will be all. I'll also live stream the gig, so those who cannot attend the gig can also watch and give me requests.

The gig is free entry, anyone can come along for as long as they want and they'll be buckets around collecting money on the day. If anyone would like to help me on the day with collecting or with some online stuff whilst I'm busy playing, then that would be wonderful. Also, if you'd like to come and sing a song with me, please get in touch.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
