Explosion Entertainments is a new website designed to help charities and voluntary
organisations locate entertainers who will perform at their events for no fee. The
site itself charges neither the charity nor the entertainer for a listing.
The website
aims to help both entertainers and charities. Founder Peter George realised that
it can be difficult for performers to get themselves known, while many charities
find it difficult to locate suitable and low cost or even free entertainers for 
their fundraising events.

The website is the result of his aim to meet both groups’ needs.
