Iʼve raised £1,410 to Bernie's Head Shave for Amy-Rose's Army
- Funded on Sunday, 31st October 2021
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Amy-Rose is a beautiful 7 year old with a sunshine smile. During labour Amy went into toxic shock resulting in HIE ( Hypoxic-Ischaemic-Encephalopathy). Amy-Rose has athetoid/dyskinetic quadriplegic cerebral palsy and is 100% tube fed through a transgastric jejunostomy button.
Amy-Rose has very complex needs and requires lots of specific equipment which has to be updated as she grows. Amy-Rose uses an Eye Gaze system at school and I would like to raise enough funds to purchase a system for Amy to use at home, which will hopefully help with her communication.
Any extra funds will be for essential equipment and to possibly fund a family break to Fife which has fully adapted and accessible accommodation and parks with wheelchair accessible equipment.
So, what am I going to do to raise this amount?
I wanted to do something that would have a big impact on me and shock people into giving. Anyone who knows me, knows my hair is the one feature I am really proud of. So having my head shaved is the obvious choice. I have set the date for Saturday 14th August at 1pm, outside Bespoke Flowers at Droylsden Precinct. George from Droylsden Village Barbers has kindly agreed to do the deed
I hope you can help me achieve the target by donating. Any amount no matter how small will be gratefully received.
I hope we can help to make a difference for Amy-Rose, her Mum Ceri-ann and Dad Phil.
Thank you so much.

4 years agoWow!! Your amazing generosity has smashed our target. I hope you won't think I'm being greedy but I have increased our target. Amy requires so much specialised equipment and I want to maximize this fundraising event. On Saturday (14th August) at Droylsden Artisan Market we will have a raffle and childrens tombola. We will also have collection buckets. George from Droylsden Village Barbers will be shaving my head at 1pm outside Sophies flower shop (Bespoke Flowers). Hope you can make it ❤️
