FOTRT X QUEER CARING PRESENT: Ceilidh!
17 October 2024 @ 19:00 – 23:00
Join Folk of the Round Table and Queer Caring for a night of queer ceilidh dancing and folk music to raise money for Áine’s gender affirming surgery! With music from friends of the folk night, Stool of Repentance!
‘We need to raise just over £36,000 so that Áine can have an essential, lifesaving, and long-awaited gender affirming surgery. The surgery she desperately needs is not available on the NHS for transgender patients, so fundraising for private care is our only option.
Some of you may know Áine as a beloved member of the folk and queer communities here in London and regular contributor to the FOTRT sessions: she is an artist, talented and passionate musician, and full time carer for her disabled partner. If you don’t know Áine then this is your chance to dance the night away all while supporting and showing solidarity with a transgender person in your community at an increasingly frightening, violent, and hostile moment for trans folks in the U.K.’
Tickets are £15/£10 and available via eventbrite here. All proceeds from the event will go towards the transition fund!
