Guest Grov1 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Hi All Friday 18th March is Comic Relief and my son Young Elliot is doing a tour of 7 soul clubs in one night. Elliot is 8 years old and mad on soul. He became interested after watching the promoters setting up at the venue his Grandparents own and has become hooked since the Charity All dayer last May. He regularly attends local nights in the East Mids and Yorkshire. He always raises money for Comic Relief and last time dressed as a girl dancer with his older sister dressed as the boy doing a demonstration at our dancing school. This year he wanted to fundraise using his love of Northern Soul and selling his records or his bags wasn't an option so we got thinking and came up with a tour of 7 soul clubs in one night. We will be starting in Nottingham and Ending in Castleford he will be dancing at all the clubs for about 10 - 15 minutes before collecting and moving on to the next. The reason for Soul Time is simple its his favourite track. I would like to take this oppurtunity to thank all the promoters for allowing Elliot to come into there venues and helping him with his fundraising if anyone on here would like to sponsor Elliot I have set him a giving page up at Comic Relief at the address below https://my.rednoseday.com/soultime Please anything you can donate will be much appreciated Thanks alot Scott
