Hi. Welcome to the Stay up Late Campaign run by Heavy Load,the UK's only punk band made up of musicians with and without learning disabilities. Lots of people come to our gigs, but they cannot stay out late to watch us. They have to go home early because their staff finish work at 10pm. Heavy Load are fed up with this! We think people with a learning disability have the right to stay up late and have some fun!

No Comments »


Hello Wild Bunch Clubbers…….
Are you looking for love? Is love looking for you?
Have you found love & then lost love?
Maybe dropped love down the back of the sofa, and now you just can’t reach love & your hands got stuck!
Perhaps love has been there all the time, but you couldn’t see it? What is love anyway? Is love the same as luv or LUUURVE?
Well………….. the Wild Bunch are here to help answer your “love related questions” and we recommend you come along to our fantastic………………….
Valentines Party on Thursday February 18th
The Rocket, 166 – 220 Holloway Road, 8 – 11.30pm, £5 entry
There you will be entertained by our DJ’s & they’ll help you: forget about all those tricky love situations as you dance the night away, forget about all your troubles as you move to the beat, forget about all those.…Suddenly you catch site of a stranger across a crowded dance-floor and your eyes meet……….& then, in a second, your whole world changes.
Check the flyers or call The Elfrida Society on 020 7359 7443 for more details.
Hope you can make it
Love The Wild Bunch Committee xxx

Wild Things 2 review - Disability Arts Online

No Comments »

Here’s a review of the Wild Things 2 album by Colin Hambrook at Disability Arts Online. The album would make the perfect stocking filler but you’ll have to be quick.

‘The music ranges from the tight blues of the irrepressible JC-Jammer with his Dump Truck Baby, to the maddening Mulberry Leemore Music Groups ‘Telescopic Handler.’ They’ve had me humming the refrain “Ed really likes the gear box”…for weeks now. Kylie Minogue eat your heart out!’

All proceeds go towards furthering the Stay Up Late campaign.

New Stingray Club Venue, Oxford, UK - 15th Dec

Christmas Stingray Nightclub Special

At the New Venue…OX1 Lounge, Jam Factory, Park End Street, Oxford

Tuesday 15th December – 7 – 11pm

£7.00 on the door including food and Christmas Stingray Fun

We may have all heard about the sad news about the Stingray Club Crisis early this month as members of the Stingray Club team and My Life My Choice, put out their plea for help having lost their original venue at Bar Risa?

Now we have the fantastic news that not only have they found a new venue but they intend to celebrate with a bumper Christmas Club night on Tuesday 15th December, which brings an early Christmas present to hundreds of people with learning disabilities in Oxfordshire.

From right under their noses at the Jam Factory where My Life My Choice offices are based, OX1 Lounge Promotions Manager Jake Parker heard the SOS and sought to see what he could do.

“I met the Stingray team and was immediately impressed with their enthusiasm and commitment to making Stingray happen somewhere in Oxford as soon as possible,” said Jake, “I was keen to make this a great Christmas for all those who go to the Stingray Club; I think it’s going to be a fantastic Christmas night on the 15th December.”

The Stingray team keenly added that they will be letting their 400 strong mailing list know about the great news and can’t wait to work with their new partners at the OX1 Lounge.

“This has made my Christmas,” said Paul Scarrott Stingray’s DJ trainer, “There are a few things to iron out at the venue but we’re positive we’ve found the right people and nightclub to work with.”

“Let’s make it a special night to remember. Happy Christmas Stingray,” added Andy Law, another Stingray team member.

Please contact us at the My Life My Choice office for more details, or email office@mylifemychoice.org.uk or check out our page on the My Life My Choice website www.mylifemychoice.org.uk
