Home of Tone is now proudly supporting the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust
As some of you may already know, I have run modest charity fundraisers since the early inception of the Home of Tone. Either by selling limited edition T-Shirts with the profits being donated to a chosen charity, or even gig events and social gatherings which have been really enjoyable moments and have helped raise a brilliant amount of money for charity. I've championed Mind Charity, a cause close to my heart for a number of years now, and will continue to do so where possible. But I wanted to also contribute to another charity going forward and since my last event back in November 2019, it has been on my mind about which charity that will be.

I have decided to set up a monthly donation on the behalf of the Home of Tone and of course ultimately, the kind customers of the Home of Tone, to The Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust. I wanted to support them as I felt really moved by the things I read about them, so if felt a natural choice. They offer support, guidance and opportunities to young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to create a fairer society in which everyone can succeed. 
"A lot has changed since Stephen Lawrence’s murder in a racist attack in 1993, but some things have stayed the same. Too many young people still struggle to succeed because they are disadvantaged by factors beyond their control, such as where they are born, the school they go to, or any discrimination they may face.".



I hope that in coming months & years, I can also run fundraising events in further support of this great charity. Importantly I want to thank you, Home of Tone customers and visitors for supporting me, James' Home of Tone, and helping making the monthly donation possible.
