Story
*** Sadly due to delivery issues the wax kit will not arrive till next week. Therefore we will be doing "The Big Wax" next weekend 11th April. This gives us another week of fundraising and we hope with local press now covering the story we can get up to £2000!" Thank you all for your support so far, let's keep up the momentum, please keep donating/sharing our page. Together we can all make a real difference!***
Like many others out there right now, we feel like we want to do something to help. Sadly we are currently still having to work so volunteering isn't an option.
However through the many suppliers to our workplace we are able to purchase necessary supplies that will assist the NHS and key workers (at cost price) to enable them to stay safe and protected.
People who know us will know that we are a bit daft and always up for something mad. We have decided to go for the 'BIG WAX' to try to raise £500 towards these essential products. These include: gloves, face masks, hand sanitizer, antibacterial wipes and hand cream.
So what is the 'BIG WAX'? if we raise £500 We vow to wax our entire bodies from the neck down (the wives wont let us do eyebrows). We will live stream on facebook the parts that are 'appropriate' to share 😂 to keep it family friendly.
We understand times are hard for everyone out there and please only give if you can afford to. If you are unable to donate all we ask is please, please share this link with your family and friends.
Help protect our NHS and Key workers!

Let's stand up for these heroes, keep them safe and protected while they put their lives on the line for us!

4 years agoWell what can I say, we are blown away by the incredible generosity from you all! We are really making such a difference to our key workers and NHS staff. We have made the decision to postpone the wax until next weekend ( 11th April). We have ordered the wax kit but due to the craziness of the delivery companies it wont arrive till next week. While this is a shame, it gives us an extra week of fundraising. We have already raised a whopping £1300 and now with some local press covering the story we are hoping that we can make it £2000!
