The Rock On Wood live music festival is set to return to the White Hart Pub in Loughborough from July 21-23.


It will bring together the greatest local bands from the area for a weekend of live music to support mental health in the community.


Tom Lakesman, Rock On Wood organiser, said: “Mental health is something that affects many people within our community therefore we would like to support Lamp in providing services for those that need support.”


The free music festival will raise money for Leicestershire-based mental health charity, Lamp. This will be the music festival’s second year after raising £850 for Lamp last year.


Vicki Standing, Fundraising and Relationships Manager for Lamp, added: “We are overwhelmed that Rock on Wood are supporting Lamp again this year.


"The funds raised will help us continue supporting people within the communities of Leicester, Leicester and Rutland. We hope that those who are attending have a great weekend of live music while supporting our cause.
