Lockerbie prepares for Jam4Sam fundraiser for The Brain Tumour Charity

Lockerbie’s Royal Bar will host an eight-hour music fundraiser, Jam4Sam, tomorrow to help The Brain Tumour Charity.

Lynzie Porteous, and her partner, Craig Glendinning, are thrilled that it is already a sell-out and are urging anyone who cannot make it to let them know so they can pass on their £5 wristbands to those on a waiting list.

The event, in memory of Lynzie’s five-year-old cousin Sam Dorrance who died of a brain tumour in 2016, will further boost the Super Sam Fund which has raised more than £180,000 for The Brain Tumour Charity over the years.

Sam lived in Gretna where his mum, Tanya Turnbull, originates from, before the family moved to Stonehaven in Aberdeenshire.

He died 18 months after being diagnosed with a brain tumour and since then family and friends in Dumfriesshire have been organising fundraising events in his memory.

Rocking it at The Royal this time with the live music charity event will be eight different acts taking to the stage between 1pm and 9pm.

The full line-up and running order has been confirmed as follows: 1pm Mark It Zero; 2pm Shaunie Craig; 3pm Way Up; 4pm Wounded Bull; Pedro and the Pirates; 6pm The Green; 7pm Under Neon; 8pm The Cherry Pinks.
