The Churn Project has revealed that fundraising hero and musician Julie Kent MBE will be giving its next Pocket Concert on Thursday. Julia is known locally and across Gloucestershire for the many hundreds of thousands of pounds she has raised for many different charities since the tragic loss of her first child at just three years old from a brain tumour.
