HUMANITAS ANNOUNCES A NEW SEASON OF DIDDY RASCALS FUN The Family Friendly Raves Return To Raise the Roof AND Raise Money for Family, Healthcare and Education

Humanitas, the charity that believes all children should have education, healthcare and family, is thrilled to have been given the rights to host Diddy Rascals events. This means all future Diddy Rascals family raves will raise funds for our charity work. Below is some information about the first events that will run in 2017 (more will be announced) but if there are any opportunities for listings or you are pulling together any larger features in which we might fit we would love to be included. We have extended the Diddy Rascals events beyond family raves, to included parent and baby screenings and a festival.

If you would like to find out any more about us or the work we do, please do let me know or you can visit our website www.humanitascharity.org

Best,

Genevieve

HUMANITAS ANNOUNCES A NEW SEASON OF DIDDY RASCALS FUN

The Family Friendly Raves Return To Raise the Roof AND Raise Money for Family, Healthcare and Education

27 March 2017: Big beats for tiny feet are back, as a new season of Diddy Rascals (www.diddy-rascals.com) events are launched for 2017, with the exciting addition of Diddy Rascals Movies, and a festival.

Launched in 2016 former Ministry of Sound alumni and now part of the charity Humanitas all Diddy Rascals events are not for profit, helping Humanitas provide long-term, professional support to individuals in areas of devastating poverty around the world. Three basic human rights are family, healthcare and education and this small but mighty charity has been on the ground providing real relief since its inception in 2001.

Diddy Rascals Raves: live DJs play a soundtrack of classic house pitched perfectly to both parents and kids, while inflatables, free face painting, horns and glow sticks give it an authentically ‘old-skool’, playful vibe. A chill-out room gives younger kids the chance to hang out in the ball pool, enjoy the lights and soak up the ambience. Ideal for 2 to 8 year old mini-ravers, younger or older siblings are welcome.

With goody bags for mini-ravers, clean and well stocked baby-changing facilities, buggy parking and fully licensed bars, Diddy Rascals is the new, cool kid on the block.
