Gigs go online to raise vital funds

Diverse Abilities’ Sing to Raise campaign has launched on Facebook following a raft of cancellations due to the current government guidelines.

The first of the livestream series took place on Friday 1 May, featuring local performer Gecko and The Bee, and raised more than £100 for Dorset’s disability charity.

Upcoming shows all being streamed on Friday’s include :

  • David Mein Music,
  • Lucas Hardy,
  • Luke Dubyah,

Emma Bovey, fundraising manager at Diverse Abilities, commented: “We are thrilled that the first of our Facebook live stream events was such a great success. It’s a difficult time for charities across the nation, with an increased demand on services but a reduced capacity to fundraise, we’re taking stock of all our usual programming and seeing where we can make things work – and we’ve got a few exciting plans in the pipeline too.”
