2023 will be a great 10th year for WRAD as we love to call it and it's getting bigger every year. The concept is simple and easy to join in. We quite simply ask you to hold an event during SEPT 23 as it suits you / your home/ care company etc , be it four people in a room playing music and having a cup of tea to the O2 arena (I WISH LOL) but my point is no matter how small or large your event as long, as you tell us what you are doing, we will share your event worldwide!!
It really is as easy as that and we will show the world once again this disease is nothing to be ashamed of.
No it's not Band-Aid (YET!!!)
But we are getting there lol
Best wishes Norrms
