THE ROADIE COOKBOOK - MADE WITH LOVE
The Roadie Cook - coming this December - is a lockdown project founded by members of the Chic & Nile Rogers’ and Elbow touring crew. The brainchild of Production Manager Nick Gosling, this book is a venture detailing roadie’s tour-influenced world adventuring inspiration as a means to unite and retain the community efforts road crew emulate in their day jobs. 100% of sale proceeds will be split between Music Support and StageHand to help fund financial hardship and mental health first aid training. When the time comes, we encourage anyone with an interest in food and a love for live events to purchase the book and support the production industry while cooking up a storm or drinking to fond memories during the 2020 holidays. The Roadie Cookbook’s project team also includes Production Co-Ordinator Julie Cotton, Production Assistant Athena Carmasitos, Backline Tech and Stage Manager, Rich House and StageHand Trustee, Kel Murray.Stay tuned here: https://theroadiecookbook.wordpress.com/

STICKINGABITBACK - LE MARK’S CONTRIBUTION
Le Mark has decided to donate £10.00 from every single order of its popular PAL Labels, for as long as it can to help Stagehand.The company explains: “At times like these we need to pull together. We had a look at what we do to see how we could possibly help others - be that in a small way. Le Mark, like many others, have been diversifying where we can. Whilst keeping true to our core skills, we have had to look beyond our range to find new products just to keep the lights on. Being aware of just how lucky we are, and how it’s due to the support of our customers that we have been able to keep our company going over the last few months, we feel it right and fitting that we now give a bit back to help those who are less fortunate. We decided that utilising one of our best-known, go-to items would be a perfect way to contribute to a great industry charity.”
