“They are outraged more is not being done for the region and want to raise awareness and funds to repair the damage down to their town.”
The concert, entitled Flood Help, will see the group and other local musicians perform to raise proceeds for cleaning products, clothes, food and funds for the South Yorkshire Flood benefit.

Apart from the money that will be raised, the band also hope that this benefit concert will encourage many further organisations, bands and businesses to follow suit with further ideas to get stuck in now when it's so desperately needed.
