Family of Caroline Flack partners up with McDonald's for music festival to raise mental health awareness

McDonald's is partnering up with the family of the late Caroline Flack, to sponsor a music festival raising awareness for mental health.

Flackstock will take place on July 25 at Englefield House, Berkshire, where a celebration of Caroline's life will be held including live music, comedy acts and food

McDonald's, as one of the festival's main sponsors, is giving away 50 pairs of tickets for the event itself, to allow music lovers to treat that best friend, partner or family member who has supported them and shown them kindness over the past few years.

The giveaway is now live via @McDonaldsUK Instagram. To enter, all you need to do is make sure you’re following the @McDonaldsUK page and comment on the post, tagging the best friend or family member you wish to join you.

A McDonald’s spokesperson said: “We are extremely proud to be a part of what will be an incredible celebration of kindness and togetherness filled with laughter, music and of course food. Discussion of mental health should not be a taboo subject and as a company we endeavour to provide safe places for our crew and customers so being involved at any level is important to us.”

Caroline’s mother, Christine added: "My Caroline was never more herself or happier than at a music festival with her sister and her friends. Flackstock is the wonderful idea of those who knew her best and the perfect way to remember her singing, dancing and most of all laughing.

“Not only is Flackstock the most positive way to honour Carrie, but charities that she loved will benefit from the proceeds. A big thank you to everyone involved for all their hard work – to Natalie for the mad idea, Giles Cooper Entertainment and Englefield House who saved the day, Live Nation and to all the brilliant sponsors. My family are so proud that so many people who knew Carrie loved her so very much."

Bringing best friends, family, food and fun all together, McDonald’s will be helping to facilitate the celebration of friendship, togetherness and making memories.

McDonald’s will be bringing its McPlant and Fries Van to the festival to keep the revellers fed with its renowned vegan burger and iconic fries whilst they enjoy the day’s festivities. Masked Singer winner Natalie Imbruglia, pop sensation Louise Redknapp and Fleur East are among the first acts announced to perform in the grounds of Englefield House, the Elizabethan Estate near Pangbourne in Berkshire.
