Today, we raise a glass to Marc Seymour. 🍺

A familiar face to so many and someone who will be very sadly missed.

Our thoughts remain with Marc’s family, friends and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Cheers, Marc. This one’s for you. 🍻❤️

🎶 MUSIC BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER! 🎶

At The Rose, Bexleyheath every Tuesday from 7:00pm, a relaxed, informal evening of acoustic music, great company, conversation and good vibes. All with a focus on bringing people together and promoting good mental health.

🎸 Got a guitar gathering dust?
🎤 Love to sing?
🪕 Play ukulele, harmonica, fiddle, cajón or another acoustic instrument?

Bring it along and join in!

And you certainly don't need to be a musician. Come along, sing along, listen to the music, have a drink, meet people and enjoy the evening.

Let’s build something together… 🎶

We’re starting a social music circle!
The idea is simple, unplugged, laid-back and completely go-with-the-flow.

It’s not about being the best musician in the room. It’s about getting people together, sharing a few songs, having a laugh and enjoying some good old-fashioned live music.

Music has a brilliant way of bringing people together. It gets conversations started, helps us connect with others, and sometimes gives us a reason to get out, meet people and just be around good company. All things that can make a real difference to our mental wellbeing, especially as the days start to get shorter! ❤️

So whether you play, sing, are learning, or simply fancy coming along for a listen and a chat, you’re welcome.

No stage. No pressure. No amps. No auditions.
Just acoustic instruments, good people, good music and a chance to see where the evening takes us.

One week ago today, we rounded off in the best way possible… with our first ever Family Day.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success, especially our fantastic performers:

🎶 Time Machine
🎶 My Name Is Belinda
🎶 Tilly Pantlin

And let’s not forget our fantastic Future Festival Talent! 🎶 🎤 🥁

From families enjoying the entertainment, children bouncing around, incredible food from Uncle Beef Ltd, and live music filling the garden all afternoon… it was the perfect way to bring another amazing festival to a close.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who came along across all three days. Every pint poured, every burger eaten and every raffle ticket bought helped us raise even more for our incredible charity partners.

We took a chance by introducing Family Day… and you made it one of the highlights of the weekend.

Here’s to an even bigger . See you next year! 💛🍺
