One of Macclesfield Hospital's consultants will take to the stage next month.

Jochen Fischer, a consultant orthopaedic and upper limb surgeon, will headline 'An Evening of Rock Music' at Broken Cross Social Club with his band, Imperial Bees.

Based in Macclesfield, the three-piece were formed two years ago with drummer Jochen joined by guitartists Sabine Kussmaul and Joe Wolverson.

With support from The Filters, the event in September will help to raise money for East Cheshire NHS Trust Charity.

Jochen said: "We're thrilled to be organising this event and to support such an important cause.

"East Cheshire NHS Charity plays a crucial role in supporting our local healthcare services to help them go above and beyond for patients, families and staff.

"I'd encourage the community to get involved and attend this event as it's a fantastic opportunity to enjoy live music while making a meaningful contribution."

An Evening of Rock Music takes place on Sunday, September 7.

Doors open at 5.30pm, with music starting at 6pm.

Tickets are £18 and can be purchased online here.

Food will be provided by Henry's Café which is included in the ticket price.

You can also support Jochen's cause by donating via his Just Giving page here.
