Charity Concert for Franks Fund featuring Knot Another Choir supported by Three Strikes

The concert is in aid of Frank’s Fund, which raises vital funds for research into Ewing sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer. Frank was just 11 years old and in year 6 in Pannal Primary school in Harrogate when he was diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma. During the next 12 months, he endured 14 exhausting cycles of chemotherapy, 2 months of proton therapy in the US and an horrific 8 hour operation to remove the tumour and a substantial part of his pelvis. His positivity, resilience and raw courage in learning to walk again after his operation and the way he quietly got about rebuilding his life and getting back to school were awe inspiring. However, after just 5 months in remission, the disease returned and Frank’s short life ended on 9th February 2019.

Ewing sarcoma most commonly affects children and young adults aged 10-25 years old and makes up about 1.5% of all childhood cancers. A child, teenager or adult is diagnosed with primary bone cancer every 10 minutes somewhere in the world.

By buying a ticket and coming to the concert, you’ll be helping to raise money that can be invested in much needed research into Ewing sarcoma, as well as enjoying a wonderful evening of music!

So get ready for a night of unforgettable music and entertainment by the award-winning Knot Another Choir, supported by the youth jazz-funk band Three Strikes, on Saturday 17th June at St John’s Church, Bilton, Harrogate.

Knot another Choir performs pop, rock and gospel classics and will have you singing along in your seats! Three Strikes are a youth Jazz-Funk band that have performed at the Fireworks on the Stray and at the Harrogate Christmas Market and are regularly hired for gigs and parties!
