2 May
Summary
- DJ Steve Descher will play music for 24 hours non-stop.
- The event raises money for St Richard's Hospice.
- The challenge is in memory of his late brother Peter.

Steve Descher, a DJ from Worcester, is set to perform a 24-hour continuous music set to support St Richard's Hospice. The event will take place at The Feathers Sport & Music Lounge, starting on Saturday at 14:00 BST and concluding Sunday at 14:00 BST. The musical selection will include Motown, Northern Soul, and disco genres.
This challenge is a personal tribute to Descher's late brother, Peter, who passed away approximately five years ago. Descher expressed deep gratitude for the hospice's "magical" care, stating they provided essential support that sustained his brother. He is motivated to honor his brother's memory and assist all individuals who have benefited from St Richard's services.
Even after the pub closes at 02:00 BST on Sunday, Descher plans to continue his live-streamed set, ensuring he remains accountable and the fundraising effort persists. He anticipates the early morning hours, when he will be alone, as the most challenging part of the event, finding motivation to complete the entire 24-hour duration.
