Strike A Pose is a fundraising party at Quarry organised by a collective of friends. Instead of selling tickets, donations are collected on the door to support workers taking part in industrial action or campaigning activities. At our last event in April, we raised £888 for NHS Workers Say NO, a grassroots, self-organised group fighting for pay justice and patient safety.
In our second Melodic Distraction show, we'll play the kind of music you can expect to hear at Strike A Pose, as well as chat through some of the current struggles and debates in different sectors. Our next event is planned for Friday 14th July, and we're yet to choose a group of people to fundraise for. In the show, we will discuss where our fundraising efforts might be best placed - we'd love for listeners to get involved in this discussion too. We hope to raise awareness of the strike wave and encourage people to have conversations about being sound and getting involved in the workplace and beyond.
