Subject: Brixton Bert - Benefit
Some of you will know Brixton Bert well and would like to know that he is living in Walton on the Naze Essex,having been a great favourite at the Walton Folk Festival for 14 years he decided to move from Surrey 2 years ago.Unfortunatly 8 weeks ago Bert had a stroke,he is improving slowly,starting speech therapy etc.However his close friends would like to arrange a benefit concert,maybe in Surrey or Kent?If you can help,take part as a performer,help organise,or best of all,buy a ticket,we would like to know!You may even have a good venue that we could use? Most important, any messages from old friends will be passed on to Bert, as contact is very important at the moment!
