Peterborough, Let's Get the Lava Lamp Grooving Again!
Remember the vibrant energy, the friendships forged, the sheer joy of the Lava Lamp Nightclub? Since 2007, it's been Peterborough's only dedicated nightclub event for people with learning disabilities, their friends, and carers – a place to connect, create memories, and truly let loose.
But the music stopped last year. The rising cost of living and funding challenges forced the Lava Lamp to close, leaving a huge void in our community.
The good news? We're determined to bring the beat back!
Driven by the needs of the learning disability community, the passionate volunteers behind the Lava Lamp, with support from Beat This C.I.C. (www.beatthis.org), are working tirelessly to reignite this vital space.
The Lava Lamp isn't just a nightclub; it's a place where:
* New friendships blossom.
* Skills are discovered and nurtured.
* Confidence shines on and off the dance floor.
* Everyone belongs and can truly be themselves.
Founded by adults with learning disabilities, and now powered by dedicated volunteers and Beat This's music mentoring, the Lava Lamp is a testament to the power of community.
But we need your help to turn the lights back on!
We're aiming to raise £4500 to cover essential costs for the next 12 months: venue hire, dedicated support staff, empowering DJ workshops, and a brand-new website to keep everyone connected. This vital funding will give us the runway to secure long-term sustainability and ensure the Lava Lamp thrives for years to come.
This isn't just about reopening a club; it's about restoring a lifeline. So many are missing the unique joy and connection the Lava Lamp provides.
Donating through JustGiving is quick, easy, and secure. Your contribution will directly fuel the reopening and ongoing success of this incredible inclusive space.
Please, be the spark that reignites the Lava Lamp. Let's get Peterborough's most inclusive nightclub rocking once more!
Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference. Thank you for your incredible support!
