Here's how you can get your hands on a guitar signed by Coldplay and help a good cause at the same time.
link
The band has donated a guitar for auction by Woodlands School. The musicians have donated an electric guitar to Woodlands School in Leatherhead to help fund music therapy for its pupils. The specialist school off Fortyfoot Road caters for students age between two and 19 with special education needs.
The instrument will be sold at the school's golf event at Tyrrells Wood on Friday (April 28) and all proceeds from the auction will go towards the classes which the school says "benefit all their pupils in many ways".
When the school posted the exciting news on Facebook , one parent wrote: "Fabulous, because Woodlands is an amazing school."
The British Association for Music Therapy says the classes can be life-changing for those with disabilities, illnesses, or injuries, claiming it can help people with dementia, autism, or brain injuries.
How to bid
To bid on the guitar, send your bid in a sealed envelope along with your name and phone number to Mrs K Rayner / COLDPLAY Auction. Woodlands Upper School, Fortyfoot Road, Leatherhead, Surrey, KT22 8RY.
Bids have to be received by 5pm on Wednesday, April 26.
No doubt the school has A Head Full of Dreams for spending the cash raised on the day.SUCH a great band. Sigh.

Nice. Music therapy is so important. Sometimes it can reach people when nothing else can.

I agree. Sometimes you just need music. Coldplay works for me.
