Roch Band Status Quo play for autistic Oxfordshire children


Rock band Status Quo has played a Christmas song to kindly cash for autistic Oxfordshire childre. It will get a premiere at Oxford United’s home game against Shrewsbury Town tomorrow about 700 children in it have autism.

Rock guitarist Ian Bramble performed a song, is available to download iTunes and Amazon.

John Coghlan said: “I am always delighted to help such a marvellous cause – and I wish everyone a very happy Christmas.”

Teacher Eddie Quinn said: “Working with children and young people with autism has been a big motivation behind the song. Music can be such a great way for everyone to express themselves but maybe especially so for children and young people living with autism. I urge everyone to remember why it’s Christmas and please download the song if you can.”

At Chinnor based Children In Touch, offers education and development support for children with autism.

Spokesman Gita Loba said, “Oxfordshire children and young people who are affected by autism struggle to access the help they desperately need, leaving many feeling isolated and desperate. We are so grateful to Eddie and the community of Oxfordshire for continuing to support our work and hope to have a good reason to be jolly this year by generating some much needed funds.”
