Best thing I ever did: John Hobson, 19, Barnsley

1 min read

Last May we did a concert at Kingstone School in Barnsley to raise money for the National Autistic Society's Hidden Disability Appeal. Several bands and solo artists played on the night, and we packed out the auditorium.

The groups that played were Test For Turbulence and us. We played our own brand of heavy rock and raised nearly 1,000. The money was used to buy play equipment for the Robert Ogden School in Barnsley, the biggest school for children with autism in the world.
