Mugstock 2016

Mugstock Statistics 2015No, its OK, we haven’t made a typo, we did actually mean to title this article Mugstock 2016!

You see, the organisers of this festival of music and merriment known as Mugstock 2016 have very kindly provided us with not one but two weekend tickets to their event which takes place on another Bank Holiday, 29-31 July 2016. This is a huge prize, each ticket has a face value of £75.

The image to the right shows some of the stats from last year and 2016 is set to be even bigger!

So you can still come to our Memory Fest ’16, which is taking place on this next Bank Holiday Sunday and, if you are lucky whilst you are there you can win these tickets to go to Mugstock 2016 as well!

Even if you don’t win the tickets (and only one person can win) it is seriously worth going to Mugstock for a weekend of great entertainment, check out their ticket prices.

Posters Are Ready!

Memory Fest Poster

Memory Fest PosterThanks to Kenwil Print Ltd for working with us to produce our posters, flyers and tickets! We collected them yesterday and are very pleased with them.

Cathy, Lisa and I will be distributing them around the place over the next few days – if you would like to display one for us, just get in touch and we will try to get one to you as soon as possible.

We can also send you an image of the poster if you would like to promote Memory Fest ’16 (in partnership with Home Instead Senior Care) on your own website or social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, etc) – let’s see how far we can get this information! We know people in New Zealand, Australia, America, Canada, Spain, sure there must be other places too.

Tickets are available to purchase now at the Early Bird price of only £5 each (entry on the night will be £7.50 if we haven’t already sold out by then!).

Remember, just because you can’t get to the event here in Scotland, you can still support us through sharing and possibly, if you are able, through our Just Giving page.

Memory Fest ’16 – The Launch!

Memory Fest Launch

Morning everyone

Hope you all had a great weekend! February already, can’t believe how quickly the time is moving (is that a sign I am getting old, I wonder?)

I’ve had quite an exciting weekend with the ‘launch’ or at least announcement that Memory Fest will be happening this year! OK, I know you are thinking, what is Memory Fest?

Well, it’s an idea that I had last year, 2015, and it is finally coming to life, I hope I don’t bore you all with it over the next 3 months.

I am organising, with help from a team of like minded people, a Live Music Gig at Club Bliss in Kirkintilloch on 1st May 2016 – raising awareness and much needed funds for Dementia UK and Alzheimer Scotland through Classic Rock!

We will have two live Bands on the evening, with some other potentially very interesting activities planned to go along side and during the intervals.

Our Facebook page is live now, if you have time please have a look at it and maybe share it amongst your ‘friends’. The more support we receive the more funds we can raise. Oh yes, there is a Twitter thingy too, but not sure how much this will be used.

I realise that not everyone will be able to come along on the night and so have also organised online fundraising through Just Giving so that people can pledge on line (I think it is also possible to set up a text donation facility too but I haven’t got that sorted yet!).

There is still a lot of planning to do yet but wanted to let you guys know sooner rather than later so hopefully you can get the date in your diary.

Wish me luck, please!

Cheers

Stephen

Just Giving

Some of our friends have commented that, as well as coming along on 1 May 2016 to the Live Event, they would like to make a donation before then however would prefer to donate to only one of the Charities that we are working with, rather than having their donations being split between the two.

This is perfectly acceptable, of course, and to make it easier for your we have set up our Just Giving Fundraising Pages, one for Dementia UK and one for Alzheimer Scotland – both accessible through our Memory Fest Team page
