You may have seen or heard about BUMBLEance, the children's charity and ambulance which transfers long-term sick and seriously disabled children to and from hospitals, hospices and respite centres.

The charity has teamed up with music company CHOORPY to stage a series of gigs to raise funds for the BUMBLEance crew.

The first will take place in Dublin's Bello Bar on December 5th and features Irish bands VANN Music and Go Wolf. Tickets are €10 and on sale here.

In the new year, CHOORPY will announce more gigs in several major Irish cities - watch this space.
