Can you help families with disabled and life-limited children at this time?

Story

I am Emerson Patton and Chair of Trustees for Little Miracles

What charities can we afford to lose?

That's the very real question at the moment and I am asking you all to help me.

Little Miracles supports around 10,000 children and their families. At the moment all of our face to face fundraising has had to be cancelled, our income from fundraising has grinded to a halt but families need our help now more than ever.

So please get involved, get your hair cut, styled, coloured or shaved off by yourself, your kids or family ( Stay safe and social distance only!)  and pay it forward to at least 5 of your friends, family and co-workers to do the same and make a minimum donation of £10 for your cut but don't stop there raise more if you care. Don't let Little Miracles be one of the charities that we lose.

Make sure you capture the cut on video or before and after pictures and put them on your facebook and tag @littlemiraclescharity

STATEMENT TO BE READ OUT ON VIDEO...

"My name is (your name) ..... and I am taking the #HomeHaircutChallenge

I pledge my cutting fee to the families of Little Miracles to get them the essential support they need at this time. 

And I pay it forward and nominate 5 (or more) others to do the same and challenge them to raise more if they can. 

I challenge: (list 5 people names you know) 

Lets change a child's life today, together we are stronger!"

The kind of support Little Miracles  are providing during this time includes

- counselling including specialist counselling for children with autism and learning disabilities

- bereavement support - ongoing relating to the childrens conditions although this is obviously increasing to Covid.

- family support

- food and physical deliveries

- emotional support and wellbeing

- benefits advice and applications

- mother and baby/ toddler virtual groups

- a variety of education and play sessions via zoom (these happen every hour)

- a daily youth club for young people with learning needs

- education support

- accredited learning for over 19 year olds

- educational lessons

- help arranging curriculums and education to families

- helpline

So please get involved, get your hair cut, styled, coloured or shaved off by yourself, your kids or family ( Stay safe and social distance only)  and pay it forward to 5 of your friends, family and co workers to do the same and make a minimum donation of £10 but don't stop there raise more if you care. Don't let Little Miracles be one of the charities that we lose.

Thank you all so much for your support
