We're delighted to once again be supporting Flackstock, to raise awareness of mental health issues and to raise funds for mental health charities. The third successive year of Flackstock, will be staged in the stunning grounds of the Englefield Estate, near Reading, on Mon 22nd July 2024! Artists will be announced in the New Year, but in the meantime take advantage of our Early Bird ticket discounts! CLICK HERE Money raised from Flackstock will be split equally between the charities Choose Love, Mind, Samaritans and Charlie Waller Trust – four worthy outlets that held a special place in Caroline’s heart. Caroline’s mother Christine says of Flackstock: “My Caroline was never more herself or happier than at a music festival with her sister and her friends. “Flackstock is the wonderful idea of those who knew her best and the perfect way to remember her singing, dancing and most of all laughing. “Not only is Flackstock the most positive way to honour Carrie, but charities that she loved will benefit from the proceeds. “A big thank you to everyone involved for all their hard work – to Natalie for the mad idea, Giles Cooper Entertainment and Englefield House who saved the day, Live Nation and to all the brilliant sponsors. “My family are so proud that so many people who knew Carrie loved her so very much.” Ian O’Reilly, Head of Community & Events Fundraising at Mind, said: “Every donation that Mind receives through Flackstock will allow us to be there for even more people when they need us. This includes through services like the Mind Infoline, legal line and our online peer support community for adults, Side by Side. The money will also enable us to continue to campaign to improve services and provide information and support. “We are honoured to be involved and we can’t wait for the festival to get started.” Stay tuned to Flackstock’s social media channels, for artist announcements and details of special guests! 100% of the profit from Flackstock will be applied (FN1) for the benefit of the following charities in equal shares: 25% to Choose Love, a restricted fund under the auspices of under the auspices of Prism the Gift Fund (registered charity number 1099682); 25% to Samaritans (registered charity number 219432); 25% to Mind (The National Association for Mental Health) (registered charity number 219830); and 25% to The Charlie Waller Trust (registered charity number 1109984).
