Fundraising Concert for Medecins Sans Frontiers (Doctors without Borders)

Friday 26th September, 2025, 7pm (doors open 6.30pm)
Loch Leven Community Campus, Muirs, Kinross.

This fundraising concert has been organised to raise badly needed funds for Medecins Sans Frontiers who are an international, medical humanitarian organisation working in more than 70 countries around the world. With all the conflicts, natural disasters and emergencies going on in the world today, we wanted to do something to help this wonderful organisation and we were inspired by the recent 40th Anniversary of Live Aid to do something. As music and musicians bring joy to so many, we thought this was a way to help while giving something joyful to the audience for their money.

The venue, the volunteers, the speakers and the bands have all donated their time and talents free of charge. All of the money raised will go directly to help those in need who are helped by Medecins Sans Frontiers. We would like to give our sincere thanks to those are giving of their time and talents.
