'VbyV' - Live Music Charity Event

Hi Everyone!

My name is Lauren Bridge and I am organising a live music event at Wincham Community Centre in Cheshire, to raise funds for a charity that I work with, called 'Village by Village'.

It is going to be held on Saturday 23rd March 6-11:15pm with tickets costing £10 on Fatsoma (£9 to Village by Village, with a £1 mandatory Fatsoma booking fee). Price on the door will be £12, if there are any tickets left!

The Facebook link for the event is https://www.facebook.com/events/2216741048597012/ and the Instagram link is https://www.instagram.com/vbyvmusicevent/ to keep up with the latest information.

All profits from the event will be going to the charity, with the great opportunity for a wider audience to watch upcoming bands and soloists from Manchester and Cheshire.

Village by Village is a charity founded by Neil Kerfoot. 

Their mission is to reduce the needless suffering and deaths of children living in poverty in remote rural African villages.

Their vision - A world where children born to families living in poverty in African villages do not die prematurely, have access to clean water, basic sanitation and are offered a chance for a better life through education.

"One day, we hope African children do not needlessly die or suffer from preventable diseases that we in the wealthier Northern hemisphere no longer consider a threat to our children.
We want a connected educated community that sees children in poverty as vibrant, energetic, worthy kids and not as a stereotypical poverty victim as depicted in many disaster relief posters."

'Small charity, making a big difference'

I will be travelling to Ghana this summer for 4 weeks, to spend time with the village of Abenta and aim to educate them on the importance of hygiene and health care, as well as teaching them English and Maths. I had this opportunity in 2016 and I am thoroughly excited to be able to help their community again. 

It is mandatory that each volunteer should raise £1000 before going and this event will be in aid of raising my £1000 before travelling - none of the money will go towards the cost of my flights, it all goes straight to the charity. 

I look forward to seeing you all there!

Thanks again from me and the rest of the team working on the event, as well as Village by Village
