Story
There are two reasons I took on this challenge. The first, was for the memory of Darryl Passfield, My nephew Dazza. He was tragically taken from us much too early on 18/1/2010 at the tender age of 24, by a condition called Cardiomyopothy. Losing Darryl devastated many, I swore then I would try to do my little something to ensure his loss wasn't in vain.
In 2015, a couple of my closest friends were affected with heart conditions and defects... life has changed for them and it made me reflect on mine.
I am blessed to be able to enjoy something I did, many many years ago as a youngster... Modeling. I have my second chance, and I enjoy it. So.. for me.. this made sense.
THE CHALLENGE IS NOW COMPLETE but donations still welcome.
On the 6th January, 2015.. I reached the BIG 5-0... so from 6/1/2014, I entered my 50th year. I decided to use my modelling to raise funds towards the British Heart Foundation. I had 52 weeks to complete 50 photo shoots & earned nothing from these shoots. MUA'S, photographers and any one wanting to join in, did not make a penny... all I asked was that maybe they made a small donation & or get sponsors from their loved ones, family & friends towards this wonderful charity.
I believe that all of us, at some point, have been affected by heart disease or the loss of a loved one... I really hope what I have done will go some way to helping in research and treatment centers x
