Chords Crush Cancer Musical Fundraiser returns this weekend in Shrewsbury!

Shropshire Star

A musical fundraiser dedicated to helping cancer patients will be back this weekend. Chords Crush Cancer was set up in 2016 by Mark Fielden of Shrewsbury to raise money for Lingen Davies. The cancer charity had cared for his mum, Margaret, while she had breast cancer. Since it started the event has raised more than £19,000 for the charity, with Mark hoping this year's event will push it past the £20,000 mark.
