The UK’s brightest music and TV stars are joining forces next week for a one-off event to support their friend T4 presenter Georgie Okell’s Virgin London marathon fundraising effort for Macmillan Cancer Support. Performers include Rizzle Kicks, Jameela Jamil, Yasmin and DJ Will Power, alongside Professor Green and a host of other celebrity supporters.
Georgie has organised the star-studded bash at Shoreditch venue The Hoxton Pony on Wednesday 1 February, to help raise funds for Macmillan, who she is running the Virgin London Marathon for on 22 April.
Georgie said:
‘I’m so grateful to all the artists for helping out, it’s going to be an epic night, and hopefully we can make some serious cash for amazing Macmillan who were so incredible when they supported my Gramps and our family last year, I really want to give something back to say thank you and help more people affected by cancer.’
Macmillan improves the lives of people affected by cancer, providing practical, medical, emotional and financial support, and all money raised from Georgie’s party will help people affected by cancer in the UK.
Tickets priced at £12, with all proceeds going to Macmillan Cancer Support, can be bought from www.ticketweb.co.uk|.
