Students and staff at the University of Brighton are ready to rock—and sing—for a cause close to home. Their annual fundraising concert aims to boost cancer care across Sussex by raising money for the Sussex Cancer Fund.

Free Concert with a Cause

The gig goes down at St Andrew’s Church in Moulsecoomb, Brighton, with doors swinging open at 6pm. Expect a top-notch mix of classical and contemporary tunes performed by talented university students and staff alike.

Entry is free, but fans are advised to book tickets in advance to avoid missing out.

Supporting Sussex Cancer Fund

All proceeds funnel straight to the Sussex Cancer Fund, a charity teaming up with NHS crews to improve treatment and patient experience across the region. Funds help buy vital medical kit, back vital services, and support cutting-edge research.

Can’t make the show? No problem. You can still chip in by donating online here.

Music and Community Unite Against Cancer

The concert’s packed programme features choral classics followed by contemporary favourites—performed by a mix of students, academics, and staff.

“This event shows how music can bring communities together while supporting a crucial cause,” said organisers.

By blending live performances with fundraising, the event not only raises awareness and money but also strengthens community spirit for those battling cancer across Sussex.
