Thanks to all who came to this event organised by members of the Manchester Speak group last week. We were well-entertained by some great musicians, poets and comedians including the wonderful Mister Keith, shared some more of what Speak is about, and raised money to support the network.
Putting on a music night like this is a great way to raise awareness and funds for Speak. Whether it's a gig, poetry night, open mic or a mix of all the above, it's a great chance to gather people together, have fun and raise much-needed funds for Speak, as well as let people know more about Speak and why campaigning for justice is so important!
If you'd like to put on a similar event where you are, we'd love to support you and can offer you resources, advice and even come down and help you run it! Just drop us an email to speak@speak.org.uk, or call the London team on 0208 981 9441 or the Manchester team on 0161 287 8835.
