Artists unite in concert for Robbie
The ‘Concert For Robbie’ will raise funds for Robbie Eddles and the South African Bone Marrow Registry (SABMR) in its fight against Leukaemia.
THREE of Durban’s top singer-songwriters and guitarists, Rowan Stuart, Seb Goldswain and Roarke Angelbright, will unite for a special benefit concert at the German Club in Westville on Sunday, 14 April.
The ‘Concert For Robbie’ will raise funds for Robbie Eddles and the South African Bone Marrow Registry (SABMR) in its fight against Leukaemia.
The chances of finding a match are 1: 100 000 and the South African Bone Marrow Registry only has 73 000 people on the registry – which out of a population of nearly 60 million South Africans is dismal. Robbie’s passion has always been growing the SABMR across all races, as there are so many South Africans waiting for a match. The test to become a donor on the SABMR is a simple swab test and is easy, painless, quick and free of charge to applicants, however, each test costs the SABMR R2000 to purchase and process.

There has been a flood of applications so far in support of #RobbiesWarriors, however, the SABMR needs funds to test all the new applications.
The German Club is located at 7 Barham Road, Westville. Entrance is R80 at the gate, and children under 12 will get in free. All proceeds will go towards the South African Bone Marrow Registry, and further donations will be welcome.
Doors open at 3pm, and the music will kick off from 3.20pm. Food and drinks will be on sale at the venue.
