Here’s an update on how brilliantly this project is going - copied from a post by friend Hugh Taylor, on Facebook.

“Dick Gaughan: R/evolution 1969-84 - an 8-disc box set
This was launched on Monday24th March with a target of £28,250. Amazingly the target was broken in just under twelve hours.Now with 15 days still to go it is North of £82,000.

Dick’s sister has said that he is absolutely delighted with the response and it’s great to see him so involved and engaged.

So please get your hands into your pockets, biscuit tins or whatever and if you can’t afford to pledge for one of the rewards just buy Dick a coffee and chip in a few quid.

Hats off to Colin Harper, who had the idea of doing this and has done all the heavy lifting and organising. He’s taking nothing for himself out of this. All free proceeds are going to Dick.”
