A number of celebrity musicians have come forward and donated to the “Rumble in the Jumble” in support of The Music Circle, a subsidiary to Annie Lennox’s charity, The Circle.
The first donors that have contribute items to be auctioned off to help better gender equality in Myanmar are Ricky Wilson, Annie Mac, All Saints, Primal Scream, Jess Glynne, Little Simz and Paloma Faith.
Paloma Faith has donated to huge golden palm trees that were used as part of her stage set and have even featured on TV in series one of The Voice, as well as, a T4 special about the singer.
In a statement on the auction’s Solidar website, Faith said, “I’m so happy to auction off these amazing gold palm trees in order to help raise money for gender equality in Myanmar… supporting women around the globe is a cause close to my heart. The palm trees were a key part of my set for the Fall To Grace tour and I hope they go to a fabulous new home”
A range of celebrity, clothing, items and more will be on sale at Rumble In The Jumble - held at Oval Space in London on the afternoon of Saturday 14 May. All money raised by the special auction will be given to Oxfam to help bolster their efforts in bringing more gender equality in Myanmar and across the world.
The money will go specifically to helping projects that aim to increase women’s political representation and making ‘sustainable societal change through raising awareness and advising on policies to improve the standing of women’.
