About the event
Platform One partner with Wessex Cancer Support to bring the Island a unique evening of upcoming talent, innovative performances and inspiring creations.
The event is taking place on Friday May 17 at GG’s Bar and Restaurant in Newport.
Platform One has encouraged the students to choose a collaboration partner for their biggest showcase yet.
Having learnt of the free services provided by Wessex Cancer Support, the students chose the charity to benefit from their evening of entertainment.
Wessex Cancer Support provides personalised emotional and wellbeing support for Islanders affected by cancer.
As well as their Newport support centre on Lugley Street, they also provide a Daisy Bus service to take Islanders to mainland hospital appointments.
The students will be out busking over the next couple of months in various locations, including Wightlink ferries and the Red Funnel terminal, to raise money to decorate the hall for the evening.
There will also be a raffle held on the evening with some great music and fashion related items, along with other prizes.
Tickets are on sale now. Advanced tickets are £10 and limited VIP tickets are available for those that wish to enjoy a buffet, private bar, seating, and birds eye view of the night.
All the money raised will be used to support Islands affected by cancer.
