About The Event

HI GUYS.     IMPORTANT NOTICE  PLEASE READ ALL AND SHARE . 

As many of you are aware  I ran the Blesma Charity All Nighters with my dear friend, Character and Soul Legend SIMON CUERDEN For many years.   
Being from an “ARMED FORCES” background this event was dear to Simons heart  and when I visited him in hospital the day before his passing in 2019 I made him a promise that the event would continue in his memory . A promise that I intend to keep.  

In January of 2020 The Northern Soul Scene, for the first time in many years or even for the first time ever, came together putting politics and rivalries to one side to  Honour The Memory of A Soul Legend and to support  BLESMA the limbless veterans charity.   

The Response was “ Bloody Amazing “.    For that weekend, Both “All Nighters” And  many “Soul Nights” either Cancelled or Moved away from their regular dates out of respect for  Simons memory.   Allowing over 1000 to attend  THE SIMON CUERDEN MEMORIAL BLESMA CHARITY ALL NIGHTER 2020.  

Where together with Simons other love  “THE ARMED FORCES SCOOTER CLUB (AFSC)” we raised in excess of £10000. Making it the “BIGGEST” charity All Nighter “EVER” and making me PROUD to be a “SOULIE”.   

Now!

During the pandemic, for almost 2 years BLESMA, as with many other charities, have been unable to do fund raising events and their income has dropped to desperate levels. 

In response and in true SOULIE tradition. Together with AFSC, we have made arrangements to hold :-

Well...not much more to be said on that Nighter......For many...that ticked ALL the boxes with a big fat f**k off tick !!!

Well done Brent..a sterling job ..leading from the front

So nice to see the many 'all nighter dwellers' from around the UK gathering as one.....so so reminiscent of the 'olden' days.....no little groups wandering aimlessly......just one MASS gathering ('controlled with aplomb by Mr Proudlove and chums I must say )

The bar has been raised,

the crowds are back,

the standard and variety of music has been laid down for all to hear !!

The 'Allnighter buzz' so missed of late is back .... and back with gusto

The challenge now....match that !!!!!!! ...
