Fundraiser - Rap For A Reason

Story

I'm E.J, a producer and rapper based in Stockport. I’ve been playing music since I was 8 years old, and have been playing live shows for over 11 years as a drummer. On Sunday 22nd November, I will be launching ‘Rap For A Reason’ a live show of rap music to raise money for charity. For my first event, I will be raising money for Making Space services, Beacon and the Stockport Connect Hub! All donations, as well as ticket and merch sales, will go towards these services.

Line up:

- E.J.

- DMASV

- Kola

Earlier this year, my dad's best friend took his own life, which has had a massive impact on me and my family. I have accessed counselling before to get through the passing of my auntie a few years back, and I have multiple family members and friends who have engaged with mental health services, too.

With this gig, I aim to destigmatise talking therapy and encourage people to seek help should they need it. It's so important we talk about our mental health so we can make it easier to support the loved ones around us. Accessing these types of services has changed our lives.

Beacon is a mental health service in Stockport which provides support to children, young people and adults in the area. This includes talking therapies, wellbeing workshops, in-school support and more.

The Stockport Connect Hub is a support service for people aged 18 and above who are accessing or have accessed secondary mental health services ( which generally need a referral from your GP).
