Beatles 4 Food 2019
Rock n Roller and all round nice guy Trev
“Prellie” Townsend did a few charity gigs around Christmas in the early 2000’s. Things seemed to be going well but with the recent political and socioeconomic issues facing the average
person in the UK Trev felt he had to get back in to action.
Food banks his target, The Trussell Trust his chosen charity. The Trussell Trust guide and support the people opening and running food banks to ensure all legal elements are covered and other support.
The Trust also fights the government aiming to make food banks extinct! Yes, this would mean the Trussell Trust would have to cease business… And nothing would make them happier!
So December 8th 2018 was the first Beatles 4 Food, a daytime event in The Barcelona, Liverpool. The bands and venue were booked and ready to go, then in the October, tragically and
suddenly at 52, Trev passed away causing devastation to his family and friends alike. However the show must go on and
his band mates picked up the mantel and the gig went ahead raising a massive £4500 for the Trust.
Unfortunately the use of food banks has risen and help is still needed:
In terms of their last full year of stats though, between 1 April 2018 and 31 March 2019, the Trussell Trust’s food bank network
distributed 1.6 million three-day emergency food supplies to people in crisis, a 19% increase on the previous year.
We desperately need your help in raising money to
support the Trussell Trust, who in turn support food banks
