Learning To Live Again

On Saturday 20 August I headed into RAK Studios to begin to create the SING4SANE Big Sing record and a few days before doing so, I finally allowed Help Musicians UK to have, and to publish, a blog that I started writing about two months earlier. The delay was mostly as a result of the slight trepidation I felt about making public what is a very personal story.

In touting myself as an advocate of mind health care and as someone who believes that mental – or mind – health should be destigmatised, it makes sense that I should give my reasons for doing so.

The SING4SANE Big Sing has now happened at RAK Studios and I know some of you may wonder why I put myself through the trouble of organising such an event. After the weeks of delay, it finally felt right to release my story which I did via the website of Help Musicians UK a few days before doing the recording.

Help Musicians UK had been very supportive in allowing me to use their website to talk about my own charity project, given they are a charity themselves. And the team was very considerate and patient in waiting for me to deliver my write-up which I’d promised I would have delivered to them many weeks before.

I thank them hugely for that. And, if you might like to read my words, please visit their website to read my blog by clicking here.

The Grenfell House Concert

Sunday 6 August saw the creation of something very special in my back garden. Joined by Mo Pleasure, Rowland Sutherland, Kevin Leo, Joe Cang, Tom Gamble and Ross Lorraine together, from the desire to show some level of support for those victims of the Grenfell disaster, we created joyous music…and love. This love was shared among those who performed and those who listened. And the result from this is that so far £645 has been raised via the JustGiving page. I am beyond words of thanks and appreciation. And to think, it happened in my home back yard. Keep donating if you wish. And thank you for supporting and watching/listening if you did.

Gigging4Grenfell

Me and my ideas.. This Sunday 6 August I am hosting a special concert in my back living room to which close family and friends are invited. But you can join too since I am aiming to screen the concert online via the live streaming platform, Concert Window. Pay any amount you wish to join the performance which will consist of Mo Pleasure (Earth, Wind & Fire, Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson and others), soul singer Kevin Leo, singer/songwriter Joe Cang and guitarist Tom Gamble. And me. Anything you pay, less Concert Window’s fee, will be donated by me to Avondale Extra. This is a foundation setup by Avondale Primary School which lost pupils and staff members to the Grenfell Tower fire. It would be great to have you. However, the concert can only be watched live and if you are able to join us, you can still contribute a donation by visiting the JustGiving page. Looking forward to it.

Raising the Roof on Mental Health at Waterloo

The SING4SANE big sing set to take place at 12pm today at London Waterloo Railway Station has only been in the planning for a little over 2 weeks. The support in spreading the word has been phenomenal and I give huge thanks to all big hearts and organisations that have helped with this. We’re meeting inside the station, near to the Currency Exchange which is opposite M&S. If you would like to join, no need to get in touch now, simply pitch-up and come and sing “Live Again” with us. Connecting people with an understanding of mind ill health. And raising awareness of mental health through the amazing power of song. We’ll be there til 2pm this afternoon.
