Next month's The Social Festival which returns on Friday 9th & Saturday 10th September 2016 to it's new home, The Kent County Showground, is raising money for The Quest School, which is dedicated to helping children with autism lead happy lives.

Saved Records boss and The Social’s main man Nic Fanciulli is behind this project, along with his brother Mark plus Rumors boss Guy Gerber.

The Quest School in Kent is an ABA (Applied Behaviour Analysis) School which helps children overcome difficulties, reach their full potential and enable them to get the most out of their childhood and help them live a full, happy, healthy and productive life.

As well as donating a share of the takings from the festival themselves, The Social are asking for donations via (Go Fund Me). The target is £10,000 and they already on their way to reaching that target.

The aim is to really bring recognition for the school and raise awareness about autism and autism education because it affects ever larger numbers of young people.

The Social Festival is appreciative of any support possible and hopes that by raving happy we can really help improve the happiness of some children who really need it.
