Streets of London charity event

In June 2021, Starscream helped homelessness charity Streets of London launch their #ComeOnHome Prize Draw, raising much needed funds for London’s homeless community. Usually, the charity hosts a live concert but due to Covid-19 restrictions they had to think outside the box. They invited artists to donate prizes and then others would donate £5 to be entered into the prize draw. Some of the artists involved included Paul McCartney, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, Coldplay, Jorja Smith, The 1975, Bastille, Rag’n’Bone Man, Liam Gallagher and many others. They donated prizes ranging from VIP concert tickets to signed guitars. The event ended up raising an £80,000 for a great cause.

The news featured on NME, Guitar World and Metal Head and reached an audience of over 18 million.

“We’re very grateful to Starscream for the pro bono PR support they provided for our #ComeOnHome prize draw in June 2021. Thanks to their help, we increased the number of people who found out about the prizes on offer and so many more people entered the prize draws, raising more money to support people who are homeless in London.”
