Night of live music for Macmillan Cancer Support

Posted by Charlene Mitchell on Aug 27, 09 02:58 PM in Charity/voluntary

A NIGHT of electrifying live music is coming to a Ruislip pub to help raise cash for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Sweeney's, in High Street, Ruislip, are putting on the charity gig on September 11 at 7pm.

The bands playing at the event will be John Drake and The Street Spirit, The Push, The Tuts and Ashley Dawes.

Jade Cannon, born and raised in Ruislip, has organised the event while working for Macmillan as an unpaid intern for the last three months on the project 'The World's Biggest Coffee Morning'.

Leaving her full time job to work for Macmillan, Jade has organised the event from scratch to try and raise as much as much money for people affected by cancer.

She has seen her grandparents and friends develop the disease over the years, so it is a cause that plays close to her heart.

She said: "One in three of us will be told we have cancer at some point in our lives.

"Macmillan's ambition is to help every one of these people by providing them with the medical, emotional, practical and financial support they need."

All tickets can be bought at the pub for £3.
