Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page.

We are the KSL Music Collective - a group of musicians from Kent, Surrey and London, including several alumni of the University of Kent. We have been bringing music to the community through performances online whilst raising funds for a good cause. Our previous concert The Spirit of Christmas in aid of the Medway Street Angels Charity successfully raised much-needed funds for the homeless, beating our target and was well attended, featuring Christmas favourites.  

The musicians are giving their time and talent to provide entertainment in a safe manner, during times where live music events have been severely curtailed. We are grateful for all donations whatever the amount, to help us towards the fundraising target, which will go directly to the chosen charity the Young Minds Trust. 

The Music in Springtime Concert will be streamed via YouTube on the 18th of April at 5.30 pm GMT and will feature a variety of genres including light classical music, jazz and pop - instrumentals and songs, with something for everyone.  The concert is free to watch online, any donations to the charity are welcome.

Thank you.

Fundraising for Mental Health                                                                    

In the UK today, an estimated five children in every classroom has a mental health problem. A quarter of 17-year-old girls have self-harmed in the last year, while suicide remains the single biggest killer of boys and young men. But things can get better.

Young Minds provide young people with tools to look after their mental health. They give young people the space and confidence to get their voices heard and change the world we live in.

Coronavirus has had a significant impact on the mental health of young people. A survey carried out by Young Minds in autumn 2020,  found that 

• Almost a quarter of respondents (23%) said that there was less mental health support in their school than before the pandemic

• 40% of respondents said that there was no school counsellor available to support students in their school

• 69% of respondents described their mental health as poor now that they are back at school
