| Folk Festival Round Up ! |
Due to so many personal and work commitments the Madness Team have decided not to go ahead with a Midsummer Music Madness event this year although it is hoped the event will be back again in future years.
Meanwhile for a taste of live 'madness' please see photos taken at Will's 'TCT Tent' in the Wold Top Marquee at the Festival Village during the Beverley and East Riding Folk Festival held on 21st and 22nd June.
The TCT Tent continued the 'madness' tradition of bringing the MsMM message of the The Teenage Cancer Trust to folk fans who visited from around the country and it was a wonderful success! Thanks to all those who made it all worthwhile!

| About Midsummer Music Madness |
It seems a long time since June 2002 when we had our first gig in the garden, hoping our friends would enjoy our acoustic music concert, and raising “a bit” of money for the Teenage Cancer Trust (TCT).
We were aware at a very early stage of the evening on 29th June 2002 that this was really special. Our vicar, who was in charge of the weather, wrote in the Parish magazine of the event and how proud he was to be there and living in North Ferriby. Find out more....

| Rugby Tackling Teenage Cancer (RTTC) |
Rugby Tackling Teenage Cancer (RTTC) evolved from MsMM's enforced move from the back garden to Brantingham Park, the home of our local Rugby Union club, Hull Ionians.
Quite simply it is the idea of replicating what we are doing locally with MsMM around the country via other rugby grounds.
Thanks a million to Hull FC for providing an fantastic advertising board at the KC Stadium and helped us organise a bucket collect for TCT at the KC when THE WHO played there on 26 MAY.
Find out more about RTTC and our latest venture out and about.
