18 July 2016

Over the weekend, music lovers gathered at the Brentwood festival for three days of music, food, drink and laughter. The festival picked Blesma as their chosen Festival charity and the festival helped raised thousands for wounded veterans.

Blesma would like to thank organisers Jason and Karen Jopson for the amazing opportunity, the festival crew for looking after all our staff and members and the thousands of festival goers who generously dug into their pockets to support us. We would also like to thank The White Horse Pub in Brentwood, owned by festival organisers Jason and Karen, for extending their support and picking us as their charity of the year. 

Several Members also got up on stage to speak to mass crowds about overcoming adversity and sharing their personal stories. Over the three day the festival crowd enjoyed the sounds of ABC, Level 42, Soul II Soul, The Brand New Heavies and Tony Hadley.

Volunteers also worked tirelessly throughout the three days and Blesma would specially like to thank them for all their hard work.
