Chris Auker-Howlett set himself up in the Eastgate Shopping Centre for the afternoon, dressed as a WW1 Soldier to promote his WW1 themed Concert "Oh! What a Lovely War!" and to raise funds for Charity.

  • Raise donations for the Limbless Veterans Charity, Blesma
  • Chris was there for a few short hours but still managed to raise £76 for Blesma thanks to the wonderful generosity of the Eastgate Street Shopping Centre shoppers!
