Working for a charity myself I can really appreciate how necessary the not-for-profit sector is when it comes to trying to make a difference to those individuals who really need it the most and hopefully make a change for the greater good. Charities cannot survive without funding that they receive from larger, corporate donators as well as the more personal, modest donations; all of which make a huge contribution to helping voluntary organisations to carry on doing the fantastic work they already do.

So, with all that in mind, let me introduce you to something taking place THIS week. Okay, okay, it's short notice I hear you cry. That it may be, but I know a lot of people love a bit of spontaneity so if you're a lover of music, and I mean ALL music and either live in the London area or are going to be around there on Thursday 17th June from 17:30 until late I URGE you to go and check out Macmillan's Brick Lane Takeover.



Macmillan Cancer Support are a charity I've liaised with in my professional life and I don't think you need me to preach to you about how fantastic the work they do is. They help to improve the lives of those affected by cancer. They provide practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care. Remember that stark statistic we're always told? Cancer affects one in three of us. So if you are fortunate enough to not be affected by cancer in your lifetime, you will inevitably know someone who is or will be.

So what better way to help support such a fantastic cause than to enjoy some amazing musical talent whilst you're at it? Tickets are a mere £20 and for that you're getting this beautiful line-up:
