A bin lorry is being used to promote the postponed all star charity gig at the Kings Arms in All Cannings this year.

Devizes waste management company Grist has branded one of their 70 lorries.

"That lorry will drive around from Bath, Devizes, Marlborough, so it should get some good viewings!" said MD Nigel Grist.

Grist provides all the litter picking and bin collection services to the event.

"We do a full clean after the event, right through the village," said Nigel. "We hope we leave it cleaner than it was before!"

Concert at the Kings has been raising funds for cancer charities since 2012 and this year will be the last year it plays.

Each year, profits from the Rock against Cancer cause are donated to selected cancer-related charities with a small portion given to the Parish of All Cannings.

It’s now full steam ahead for this year’s event, to be held on September 4 and 5.

Held at the Kings Arms in All Cannings, the line-up already includes, among others Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel, Lindisfarne and Spike Edney’s All-Star Band - and crowd favourite, The Sweet.

Andy Scott of The Sweet said: "We are really looking forward to it. There was a potential clash for us though this year. We were due to play in Germany, but as they haven't got sorted with the vaccinations yet, so we are going to be here instead."

Organiser John 'Grubby' Callis said: “We still have more names to announce to play in the All star band. but unfortunately, Spike, who manages Queen, slipped and broke his back, so he's a bit behind in getting on it, but we will have some news on that soon.”

Rod Clements of Lindisfarne said: “The Concert At The Kings is one event we’re especially looking forward to. We had a great time when we last played there in 2015 – it’s such a friendly event, not too big or too small, very well organised and in a perfect setting.”

Hundreds of volunteers help out to get the concert up and running. Jobe Gibbs is one of the local crew.

"We help with the site, the village,working with the pro guys from light and sound, and carrying flight boxes for bands. We do all we can do. Plus a few beers! A few beers is definitely the tariff!"

Devizes MP Danny Kruger has also pledged his support saying he will do all he can to pressure the government to stick to the timeline for events opening up.

"It's been going for years, and I know they say this is the last one, but I hope they keep going for years to come. The government has got to get its act together to make sure these kind of events can happen."
