Norfolk brother donating next album money to EACH charity
'Sons of Mark' made the call after the seeing how the charity cared for seven-year-old Kayla, who died last month after battling cancer
Two local brothers tell us they'll be giving all money generated from their upcoming album- to the East Anglia's Children's Hospices (EACH).
'Sons of Mark' made the call after the seeing how the charity cared for 7 year-old Kayla, who died last month after battling cancer.
Kayla was diagnosed with a rare condition called neuroblastoma in 2021.
She had been treated in Norwich, Leeds, Southampton and Great Ormond Street Hospital over the last four years.
Glen and Owen have also put together a song from her and her family. You can listen to it here.
"We just want to raise as much money as can"
"It's probably one of the hardest things that we've ever had to do, to be honest. But it was also one of the most rewarding things we've done as well. We've grown really close to the family and it was great to do this for them.
"All proceeds from this album is going to go them EACH. They are an incredible charity and that's what we want from this.
"The Kayla song was personal to the family but we also want to take it to another level.
"We went to 'The Nook' a facility run by EACH in Norwich and we were blown away by how incredible the staff were.
"Not many people know about it- for good reason- but once they've heard about it and seen it they're blown away.
"We just want to raise as much money as can.
"We're planning on doing a big gig in Norwich in January- as that will give us enough time to get the album done- and then to fundraise as much as we can from this gig, other gigs, merchandise and proceeds from the album".
