Thrilled with how this went. I organised a huge charity fundraiser in Cheltenham on Saturday: Lansdown Blockparty For Open Door, and people showed up in force raising £5,768 for Cheltenham Open Door and having a serious party in the process.

Massive thanks to EVERYONE: venues, artists, and businesses that helped bring everything together. Lots of friends old and new and familiar faces – this is what a community event looks like with people working together for a cause.

Lots of businesses got behind the event, but particular shout outs to the venues DEYA Brewing Company, D’Arcy Wine, Ritual Coffee Roasters, and The Steam & Whistle, and the main sponsors Hudson Rose and The Union Project 👏 as well as Paul of Form UK on design ✒️

Cheltenham Open Door supports vulnerable, disadvantaged and lonely people through a variety of services. They offer a welcoming, non-judgemental space where their guests can relax and enjoy food, friendship and access to advice and support☕
