The Mayor of Redbridge is hosting a charity concert to raise money for a charity which builds playgrounds for vulnerable children.

Cllr Debbie Kaur-Thiara will host the event at Christchurch Green in Wanstead from 1pm to 6pm on Saturday September 15.

The free event will feature live music from artists from around the world, food, drink, a bouncy castle and other family activities.

There will also be a raffle offering prizes including a television.

All funds raised on the day will be going to the charity Every Life Has A Purpose (ELHAP) which creates playgrounds and play spaces for children and vulnerable adults.

The charity also runs play schemes and Saturday Clubs during term time and supports those who struggle with mainstream education to learn new skills.

ELHAP is Cllr Debbie Kaur-Thiara’s sole mayoral charity for her year in office.
