Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for this exciting event!

I'm going to be taking part in Leicester's first ever "Y Factor" event. It's a singing competition taking place on Thursday 14th March 2013 at the O2 Academy Leicester. All the contestants are local business people and we'll be performing to raise money for two great charities; The Lord's Taverners and Mencap.

I've been added to the bill at the very last minute, so I've got a lot of catching up to do and need as much support as I can get!

Just like the real X Factor, there will be judges and voting and everything. If you're free on the night, please come down and vote (preferably for me) otherwise I'll have to rely solely on my singing prowess... which probably won't work out too well for me!

Tickets are available online at https://www.mencap.org.uk/webform/buy-tickets-leicestershire-y-factor-2013 or via phone 0207 696 6006.

I hope you can join us on 14th March. Doors open at 6.30pm and the show starts at 7pm.

The Lord's Taverners is the official charity of recreational cricket and the UK's leading disability sports charity.

Sport and recreation are essential for young people and The Lord's Taverners mission is to give a "sporting chance" to those in need. This is achieved by focusing on youth cricket in disadvantaged areas and sports recreation equipment for young people with disabilities and special needs including; sports wheelchairs, specially adapted mini buses and sensory play areas.

Mencap is the voice of learning disability and you can find out more by visiting their website www.mencap.org.uk or by contacting Marie on marie.brown@mencap.org.uk

I'm singing with a live band in front of hundreds of people to raise money for two charities; Mencap and The Lord's Taverners. Your donation can help me smash my goal of £1,000 and the money is split 50/50 between the two charities.

Every penny counts and all donations go to give young people a sporting chance and support families affected by learning disability.

So please donate now.

Thank you.
