Bens Music Foundation
Description
Bens Music Foundation provides musical inspiration to the next generation of music talent The charity was founded in early February 2011 by the family and friends of the late Ben Manning.
Ben Manning went missing after a night out with friends in Wakefield on 22nd January 2011. A widescale search for Ben was conducted alongside the police, and groups of searchers consisted of more than 480 people, including close friends, family and the general public. The exhausting search lasted over 11 days until Ben was eventually found on 2nd February 2011.
The family's determination to find Ben safe during the search was inspirational to everyone, as well as the amount of help given by the general public, local businesses and the support shown on the Facebook Page of more than 10,000 posts was truely overwhelming.
Ben’s tragic death and the enormous support from over 22,000 people within the local community inspired the Manning family to set up the charity in his memory.

local performing arts group Stride Theatre need some support! They are looking for some old instruments to assist in their group services. They support people with learning difficulties and autism. If you have anything you can spare, we have some drum kits ourselves we are going to send, but if anyone else has anything it would be really helpful! Lee
