Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Anthony I am a regular over weight middle aged man who’s spent 17 years on the Armed forces before embarking on what can be only described as an amazing and life changing career. Those that know me know I have passion for ensuring young people and children are safe and Happy . As this is not always the case I have dedicated the last 3 Years to providing care for young people in Residential settings .A lot of the  children come from neglected , traumatic and abused backgrounds and may suffer emotionally.To that effect I have tried to ensure as much as possible they have fun and happy memories in the times they get to spend with myself and my colleagues. 

I am currently employed with A Wilderness way and I have pledged to join the 5k a day in May in aid of CashforKids. Not content as usual I have took the decision to try and raise as much as I can in the next month for Cashforkids via CFM which ensured the children locally are given help if they need it. 

I have decided with a heavy heart to Dye my beloved beard and hair purple in aid of this cause and would hope everyone I know and beyond can get onboard and  help raise as much as we can to ensure as many children as possible can feel safe and happy .. 

Many thanks to you for enduring my waffling on and hope my soon to be Purpleness will not be in vain ..
