Developing the Kings of Concrete from an idea to a tangible event has been a fascinating journey.
The road so far has not been without its hurdles and unfortunately the wheels are frequently at risk of coming off - That"s just life.
However along the way you meet so many interesting people who are in full support of what you"re trying to do. People who selflessly offer over their time, energy and input for the cause without expecting anything in return. Without the help we received from so many this event simply wouldn"t have happened.
Those people deserve a mention - well actually they deserve more but a mention will have to suffice for the meantime. In no specific order - A Huge Thanks to:
