Thanks for taking the time to visit my Giving Page. I am using my role as a promoter in the local music community as a means to help benefit the research of breast cancer, which is a cause that is close to me. My beautiful grandmother on my mothers side of my family Phyllis Aylward passed away before I was born from breast cancer before I had chance to get to know her so with my upcoming one year of becoming a promoter I want to use this occasion to launch a fundraising event. This has been something I’ve been wanting to do since the beginning when I first became a promoter but only now has the timing become right where I have the opportunity to run local live events in the south wales music scene to support this cause. I will be hosting these live events with live bands performing at venues with the all proceeds from ticket sales going straight to Cancer Research UK. But even if you cannot attend these events I would still very much appreciate your donation and support. The music scene should always be a power for good in more ways than one. This effort will create more opportunities for musicians to do what they love whilst also helping to support a great cause. Thanks! - Matt x
CAUSE
Breast cancer
With almost 140 women diagnosed every day, breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK. And, although rarer, around 350 men are also diagnosed with breast cancer every year. The good news is more than two-thirds of women now survive 20 years or more. Help Cancer Research UK find new ways to diagnose and treat the disease.
