Story

It only seems like 5 minutes since 4 lads got together for a "One Night, One Night Only" gig....but that was in 2010 and the feedback we had after that 1st gig meant it was inevitable we would do more.  This year will be our 5th and final one and we're hoping to bow out with over £30k raised over those 5 gigs for 5 personal and life changing causes which would be an incredible achievement and something we would be forever proud of.  

Derian House is a children's hospice providing essential care to children suffering life-limiting illnesses.  They want to start a project which will make a real difference to the lives of these children. An area just outside their main dining area is poorly maintained and is the only view outside the children have from the Lounge and Dining Areas.  The idea is to turn this space into a Zen Garden for all the young people to enjoy via plants, brightly coloured accessories, heaters, screens etc.  The children would be able to look after the plants which turns this space into an educational area as well as a well-being area and visual stimulus. If we can raise over £4000, we will be able to fund this entire project to completion which would be amazing.  Your support therefore is essential no matter how big or small.  The band and the children of Derian House would be very grateful for anything you can spare us.
