“The shows for BRITs Week are always so special, giving fans a chance to see their favourite musicians in beloved small venues,” said War Child Live Music Lead Clare Sanders-Wright. “Children don’t start wars, and this past year has been devastating, with children bearing the unimaginable cost of conflicts they hold no responsibility for.”

Since BRITs Week launched in 2009, more than £7.4million has been raised for War Child. “Right now, it’s the deadliest time to be a child. It is estimated that one in five children are currently living in, or fleeing from conflict,” explained the charity. “But there is hope. With your support, War Child can help children put the pieces back together. By experiencing the thrill and excitement of the intimate, one-off performances, you will be directly contributing to helping these children rebuild their lives.”
