Holly and Jon Hawkesford set up Jasper's Rainbow following the birth and unexpected death of their baby boy Jasper in 2014. Since then, the couple, along with the support of their friends and family including their other children Tessy and Myles, have been fundraising for three charities that helped them greatly when Jasper was born and in the following months and years.

In the lead-up to what would have been Jasper's 10th birthday, the couple have challenged themselves to host 10 different fundraising events with the final one being a concert at The Greig Hall in Alcester. Mum Holly Hawkesford said: "Jasper's Rainbow has always been about fundraising through the coming together of people and pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone. "Jasper's Rainbow Concert is certainly both of those things.
We are a musical family and our children are both involved in musical theatre, so it seemed like the perfect challenge."
