IT’S LIKE NOTHING I’VE EVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE

I’ve never been one of those people who can go into a group, the majority of which I do not know..but once the camaraderie set in and everyone realised they were there for exactly the same reasons..that was it.

COME MEET US AT EDDFEST!

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ll have our very own tent in the main arena at Eddfest where we’ll be hosting a raffle of some extremely cool items — including a signed Adrian Smith guitar — as well as an Ed-to-Ed cycling game you won’t want to miss. It’ll all help us raise vital funds for our four charities and it’s also a great way to learn more about what we do, so come say hi!
