Wee Craicin Up in aid of SpunOut Charity

Starts Thu 18th Nov 2021 at 19:00
Ends at 23:00
Cost FREE
Max 200 attendees
Type IN-PERSON Event

Location: Nubar, DCU Glasnevin Campus

Wee Craicin Up is a superb charity event showcasing DCU student talent that has been successfully run by the Mental Health Society in previous years. This years chosen charity is SpunOut, supporting young people in Ireland. We have gotten enthusiastic approval from Dave in Nubar to host the event, to which he has offered to set up the all setting requirements. The evening begins with our chairperson thanking people for being there, before talking about the SpunOut Charity. Pieces of paper with a direct donation QR code will be set up around Nubar, and all will be encouraged to donate. The showcase aspect consists of different DCU student acts (singing, poetry, comedy) performing throughout the evening. All acts are voluntary, and are not rewarded with anything in particular, other than a few stickers and possibly a SpunOut tote bag for the act who donates the most. An interval will take place half way through the show. Our one expense is that we are hiring one extra security guard for the evening.

From a health and safety standpoint: a detailed risk assessment will be submitted alongside this event form, each persons COVID-19 certs will be scanned upon arrival, and all equipment used by any acts or used as a result of the event will be frequently sanitised throughout the evening.
