Story
I work in a local care home that is a charitable, not for profit organisation. The care home caters for a wide range of residents with varying care needs and mobility.
I thought that it would be a great idea to try and improve facilities by raising some money to put towards some additional comfortable and adjustable seating for those residents who find normal chairs difficult to sit in.
I am hoping that, with everybody's help, I can raise enough money to buy a fully adjustable, reclining chair that fits in with both the resident's needs and the ambience of the home.
That's why I will be shaving off my beard and the hair on my head on October 1st; to raise some funds for our wonderful care home.

5 years agoThis is WAY late... but as a result of this fundraising event, a new Flexi Porter chair was delivered to the care home, just before Christmas. It is being well used and has become a valuable part of the equipment being used in the home. Thanks again to everyone that donated... both through this page and other methods.

5 years agoSo... my little head and beard shaving event has so far raised £660 (including off line)... with about another £50 to collect from sponsors... which will bring the total upto around £710. Not bad... not bad at all. I 'd like to thank everyone who donated to the little charity drive and would also like to thank Terry and Emm at the Rodney Inn, Helston, for supporting the event. It looks like we'll have just enough (with a small top-up) for a new Flexi Porter chair for my care hope ... and that is awesome news. Big love to you all.

5 years agoThe trim has been done! Thanks to the Landlord and Lady of the Rodney Inn and all of their patrons for their hospitality on Tuesdya night. The collection box is going to be picked up this week to see how much has been raised in the pub. I'll be leaving this page open for a week or so to see if I can gather a few more donations and once everything has been counted, I'll share the score. Thanks to everyone who has donated... please feel free to share because every penny counts. Cheers!
