ELVIS ...... is back in '68 Special

 

Many of the Elvis 1968 Special shows are performed to raise funds for good causes.

This page lets you know what we have done in the past and what we are currently working towards.

Elvis Ad

The show has been performed at the 2005 Fleet Carnival, free of charge to the Carnival Organisers with all proceeds raised going to the Carnival's chosen Charities.

Current Cause

AJ Entertainments & The Elvis 68 Special Tribute have raising money for a local fun loving 4 year old girl called Siobhan Ring who lives in Farnborough.  Sadly Siobhan is blind and suffers with Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy, due to her condition she is in need of a special bed which will last her for the rest of her life at the cost of £3,500, this will enable her to sleep safely without threat of injury.  Unfortunately this money does not appear to be available from Social Services.  As she is growing older she is unable to sleep in her cot and at present is having to sleep on a mattress on the floor, until such time as enough money is raised for the special bed she is so in need of.

Happy child

And, after much effort from all of the fund raisers, we are happy to report success. Siobhan can now sleep, safe and secure, in her own bed.

Elvis Fan

Siobhan has been to the show, and like all of the audience she gets captured by the charm of Ric. Help to raise money for her by attending one of our gigs and have a good time while supporting a good cause.

 

The 68 Special show would like to take this opportunity of thanking all the customers and staff of the following pubs who have supported them in their fundraising so far, The Black Horse, Church Crookham, The Royal Swan, Blackwater, Ye Olde Inne, Bembridge - Isle of Wight, The Horns, Crondall and The North Camp.

If you would like to donate or help by donating raffle prizes please contact Contract Plumbing Supplies, 308 Fernhill Road, Farnborough or call them on 01276 600828.
