In the area we live in around Leicester, there are a lot of local musicians who take part in Charity Busking events. A recent one at the Ferrers Craft Centre near Staunton Harold Hall, recently raised £190 for the local Rainbows charity.

Tomorrow a group of us are playing in Market Harborough town centre, and on Sunday there is another busk at the nearby Foxton Locks.

Is anyone else in other areas involved in events like this?

I'm going to be publishing the amounts raised on the "Charity CDs and gigs" permathread.
