A night of ‘60s music will take place in the Liverpool City Region this month raising money and awareness for Relate Cheshire & Merseyside.

Legendary Liverpool band the Merseybeats will perform at the Floral Pavilion event as the charity looks to boosts its funds for relationship counselling to local families and young people.

The 18 October concert in New Brighton, which will also promote Relate’s wider vision of encouraging conversations about wellbeing and healthy relationships, will also feature the charities annual raffle draw.

Tickets are already available for the giveaway, which includes prizes donated by Liverpool FC, Everton FC, Tranmere Rovers, The Philharmonic Hall, Fazenda, Everyman Theatre and John Bishop this year.

Tony Crane, lead guitarist of the Merseybeats, says the band is keen to show support for Relate Cheshire & Merseyside, and says: “I had known friends of mine, famous people, who had problems with their relationships and had been greatly helped by Relate. It is a very good charity and it is a very good cause to raise money for.”

Ahead of the show, which will see the band supported by fellow well-known ‘60s act The Dakotas, Tony adds: “We will be telling stories about our times when we first recorded the songs and played at the Cavern alongside The Beatles. We pay tribute to other artists who came out at the same time as us and include some of their famous songs.”

To buy raffle tickets for the event call 0151 237 3995. Tickets for the concert are currently available from the Floral Pavilion.
