Drinkaware: Proud sponsors of Consequences Live
As part of our major sponsorship of a unique fundraising initiative with homeless charity Crisis, we proudly sponsored Crisis Consequences Live on 2 March 2008. A mind blowing line-up of the best in Indie Rock gave nearly 3000 revellers the chance to listen to a piece of history! Check out our online gallery with photos from the event.
Why?
As the UK’s leading consumer facing charity promoting positive drinking, we joined forces with Crisis in a bid to increase young people’s awareness of the consequences of alcohol misuse. There are limited services available for homeless people with alcohol dependence and with over 50% of homeless people having a strong relationship with alcohol, we aim to raise awareness of the need to take action through this determined partnership.
Who?
Paul Weller, Supergrass, Graham Coxon, The Dirty Pretty Things, Reverend & The Makers, New Young Pony Club, Andy Rourke and Ed Harcourt. Not only that, the performers are also recording a one off track called ‘Consequences’ with Beth Ditto, Drew McConell and The Enemy, based on the well known children’s game, set to release in April.
