Gary Barlow books solo shows
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 26 October 2011
Gary Barlow has announced his first solo shows in eleven years, and it’s all for a good cause.
The aptly-titled ‘Gary Barlow In Concert’ will take place over two nights (5 and 6 Dec) at London’s Royal Albert Hall, raising funds for Prince Charles’ youth charity, The Prince’s Trust, and The Foundation Of Prince William And Prince Harry.
Says Gaz: “It’s really important to me that disadvantaged young people get the support they need, especially at the moment. I hope the money raised through these concerts will make a real difference to young lives”.
A portion of the monies generated by the shows will also go to the UK City Riots Appeal, which aims to help rebuild riot-damaged communities.
Martina Milburn, chief executive of The Prince’s Trust, says: “The Prince’s Trust was set up in 1976 following social unrest and high youth unemployment. Today, our work with disadvantaged young people is more relevant than ever – with riots in our cities and the number of jobless young people at a record high. We are enormously grateful to Gary Barlow for helping us to raise funds for such a timely cause”.
