A note from Liz:
I'd like to aim to raise £500 - or more! - to support the British Red Cross's work in Gaza. I've written a song to go with it as encouragement to essentially do something, whether you donate here or elsewhere, have a conversation with the issue with someone to raise awareness, or give your time (fundraising, volunteering, or anything you can do). Put politics aside and find a small way to help those who are being harmed.
Once you've donated, I'll get the original wav. file over to you to use as you please and only ask that I can - if possible - add you to my Mailing List as an independent musician keen to share events, news and music. Obviously you can cancel this anytime.
If you're a singer yourself, I would be glad to send you the piano track and would love to hear your version!
To get your file and join the Mailing List, simply click on this link to my website and add a note letting me know (or contact my via any of my social media pages via linktree).

Information from the British Red Cross:
The ongoing conflict and situation in Gaza is catastrophic. Famine is looming, clean water is scarce, and the healthcare system has all but collapsed. Most people have fled from their homes, but there is nowhere safe left to go. We are witnessing unacceptable and relentless human suffering. Aid alone will not solve this crisis, but it will save lives. People urgently need clean water, food, and medical care. Red Cross and Red Crescent teams have already helped over half the population, working tirelessly to alleviate suffering wherever they can.
Please note:
The Gaza Crisis Appeal will support people in areas affected and those potentially affected in the future by this crisis. Gift Aid claimed on donations received in response to this appeal will be used to fund the whole of our work. In the event there are surplus funds raised for this appeal these will be used for the general charitable purposes of the British Red Cross.
