I’m organising a music event in order to raise money for the Cancer Centre at the Royal Stoke Hospital (University Hospitals of the North Midlands).
This cause is very important to me as three years ago I was diagnosed with prostate cancer and received a course of radiotherapy treatment at Royal Stoke Hospital. It was successful, my PSA levels are now low and I would like to arrange a fundraising event to support their wonderful work.
As you know, my hobby is playing the ukulele with my nickname of Plinky Plonky Pete. I will be undertaking a musical challenge and attempting to set an unofficial world record for the most number of songs performed live in a musical medley. I am aiming to perform a medley of 75 songs which will be played one after another without a break. Having searched through the various “world record books” I’m not aware of anyone attempting this before. This is different from attempting a record to perform for the longest time which usually includes taking a short break every hour. I shall be attempting to perform continuously without a break, going from one song straight into another.
This event will take place in the Main Atrium of Royal Stoke University Hospital (Newcastle Road, Stoke-on-Trent, ST4 6QG) on Wednesday 25th October starting at 11:00am.
I am inviting you to support me in raising funds for the Cancer Centre by either sponsoring me for each song I play or by making a donation. All of the money raised will go towards the work of the Cancer Centre at Royal Stoke Hospital.
Would you be able to contribute towards my fundraiser? A donation of any amount would truly help me.
If you could also share my fundraiser link with your friends, it would mean so much. The more people hear about my cause, the quicker I can reach my fundraising goal.
