<strong>Musicians come together for Haywards Heath charity concerts</strong>

An array of international, national and local musicians have joined forces to raise funds for local charities at this year’s <em>Haywards Heath Proms in the Park</em>.

Operatic superstar Katherine Jenkins, Motown artist Roy G Hemmings, and several other well-known singers and dancers will perform in Victoria Park this July, with the hope of raising thousands for several Sussex-based good causes.

Organised by <em>Its Magic Events,</em> the four-day music extravaganza will sponsor three nearby charities: Kangaroos, Sussex Autism Support and Woodlands Meed.

“This year’s chosen charities share the same ethos and theme,” says Its Magic Events founder, Tim French MBE. “They support children and young families affected by disabilities. Kangaroos provide a range of clubs and trips for more than 200 families, while Sussex Autism Support provides a vital support network for those dealing with autistic spectrum conditions.

“We’re delighted to also sponsor Woodlands Meed School, which provides first-class education to those with special educational needs. In recent years, budget cuts have taken their toll. We’re hopeful that we can really make a difference.”

The eclectic schedule for this year’s <em>Proms in the Park</em> was announced over the past few months. Headlined by Katherine Jenkins, the festival will also include Queen, Elvis and Neil Diamond tribute bands.

There will also be performances from the Ensemble Reza Community Orchestra and Brighton Jive Dance School. Roy G. Hemmings, ex member of The Drifters, will also stage his internationally-beloved Motown show.
