What is the 24 Hour Kitchen Disco?
During COVID lockdown SNAP started a special Facebook Live session – SNAP Radio – on Friday mornings featuring Emily Grimes, our resident Music Therapist. Emily’s amazing talent, the interaction and requests on the chat, and the relaxed and welcoming feel of these sessions helped families to stay connected throughout the pandemic.
During one of these sessions Emily had an amazing idea – what if we did this for 24 hours? So they did! On 5 March 2021 the feed went live and families, friends, supporters and people from across the county tuned in enjoying a variety of music acts, videos and games. We raised a phenomenal £13,000!
Now we want to do it bigger and better than ever before but we need your help! This event will be a celebration of our community and SNAP’s 30 years of supporting Essex families. What better way to do it by inviting everyone to join in for a boogie?!
We will be LIVE, streaming via YouTube, from The SNAP Centre from 9AM, 19th October – 9AM, 20th October.
