Rock For Refugees - March 7 - Bussey Building


Recommended Posts

Tickets are ?5 : https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rock-for-refugees-tickets-32020749925


On March 7th Rock For Refugees is coming to The CLF Art Cafe, Peckham, to host an eclectic night of live music from some of 2017?s rising stars, all in support of UNICEF.


Based in the 120-year- old multi-level Bussey building, the CLF Art Caf? will host the very first Rock for Refugees gig with four incredible acts raising money for a good cause.


Headlining the event is London?s feisty female duo Nova Twins, who have turned heads with

their unique blend of grime, punk and hip-hop beats. Supporting them are riff-driven alt-

rock trio Berries, whose electric live performances are jam-packed with charisma and

energy from start to finish.


Also playing are one of Brighton?s most exciting up and coming bands The RPM?s, who last

year headlined the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury Festival with their indie rock n roll

style, whilst opening the event is solo artist Non Canon playing acoustic music with an

experimental twist.


Rock for Refugees is a charitable fund under the auspices of Prism the Gift Fund, however, we are in the process of fully registering as a UK charity. Since, we don't want to spend thousands of pounds on due diligence when established charities already know exactly where funding is needed, ALL the profits are going to UNICEF.?


All of our fundraising will help Syrian refugee children to access and remain in education. That may mean we are funding the provision of drinking water, food or other essentials, but this means the children can go to school in the first place, but also can concentrate at school because they're not hungry / thirsty / sick / cold.? There's more information on the work of Unicef in this area here: ?http://childrenofsyria.info/


Please support our work and come along on March 7th.


Tickets are available here for only ?5 : https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rock-for-refugees-tickets-32020749925


Thank you

Here's what Clash Magazine had to say about The RPM's in October: "The new track from Brighton garage punk outfit The RPMs, it's a brattish salute to refusal, to the gentle art of making up your own damn mind"

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
