A CHARITY fundraising boogie-woogie show next Saturday is set to raise thousands of pounds for local charities.
Ben Waters and his band will take to the stage of Weymouth Pavilion for the charity gig.
Causes that will benefit include Dawlish-based pancreatic cancer charity Pan Pals, Chesil Sailability, Friends of Puddletown Library and bowel cancer charity Duck and Drakes.
Schools, including Broadmayne and Puddletown will also benefit.
The band will be supported by Replay on the night.
Weymouth musician Ben, named by Jools Holland as one of his favourite pianists, said: “I’ll be performing alongside my six-piece band.
“We’re helping 17 different charities and if they sell all of their tickets they’ll get £1,000 each.
“I want this to become an annual thing if we can do it in a sustainable way.”
Tickets cost £20 each and are available from weymouthpavilion.com or by calling 01305 783225.
Tickets are also available for a Champagne reception before the show.
