Tricky has today announced the first step in a new fundraising effort to raise money and awareness surrounding mental health in his hometown of Bristol, by launching for sale a deluxe notebook set from his webshop, with all profits from the release being donated to Bristol Mind.
The fundraising effort is a close-to-home initiative supporting the brilliant work the local mental health charity conducts, from advocacy and mental health awareness training, to free helplines and counselling. More about Bristol Mind’s work can be found at bristolmind.org.uk
The team from Bristol Mind commented:
“Bristol Mind are very grateful for Tricky’s contribution in raising awareness and helping to fund our services. The more people can talk openly about mental health, the easier it will be for people to seek and get the support they need.”
The set features an A5 notebook and accompanying pen, plus lyrics booklet drawing a line from Tricky’s recent acclaimed album ‘Fall To Pieces’ to the new initiative. Ten editions of the set will be sent at random to customers containing original hand-written lyrics sheets from the album recording process. It is available today from shop.trickysite.com
