The Clansman Club in Corby was filled with ‘a kind of magic’ as national, international, and local magicians performed to raise money for local child Paisley McNamee.

Corby’s own Jay and Joss, who wowed the Judges on Britain’s Got Talent, were instrumental in putting the event together in aid of little Paisley who was diagnosed with neuroblastoma earlier this year.

Paisley is currently undergoing treatment in Birmingham, surrounded by her supportive family. Jay said: “We live in Corby and Joss and I attend the Clansman from time to time because they have a brilliant support for local magicians. "We have got to know Paisley’s family and when I heard about the struggles they were going through, we had no hesitation in getting involved to do what we could to help. In Corby we all pull togethe.

"It was great to get Corby’s own local magicians David Rodgers and Danny Marsh to do a set which went down really well with the crowd.

"We approached Matteo Fraziano who we know from Britain’s Got Talent and he had no hesitation on coming all the way from Italy to support the event!”

Matteo said: “It’s a pleasure to be in Corby and support #PurpleForPaisley. Jay and Joss have told me so much about the town and how the community pull together and it was a great evening with great people, for a great cause , where at the end I even took part in the Clansman tradition of drinking a double Drambuie.”

The Clansman publican Cliff Morton said: “It was an absolute brilliant night. On behalf of The McNamee & Dooley Families, I’d like to thank everyone who supported the event and extend a special thanks to all the performers especially Jay & Joss who made it all possible.

"They brought a Las Vegas style performance to Corby. It was also great that Jay and Joss announced details of their new UK tour at the event.

"The highlight on the night was when Paisley, her brother Keegan and their mum and dad Ross and Carlyn appeared on the big screen via FaceTime during the event, to convey their thanks.” Carlyn and Ross said: “Can we thank Cliff and the Clansman and all those who attended and performed it mean so much to us. Paisley has recently started treatment in Birmingham where we will be based on and off for next few months, can we thank all those who have shown support to Paisley and the family it means so much to us all!”
