Story

I was looking for a charity to raise funds for, which you might think would be an easy task, after all there are plenty of them, right?

Well yes there are, and they are all for deserving causes.

However, for me personally I was touched by an advert for Unicef, which depicts the terrible conditions children have to live in. I was moved by watching this short advert and can not imagine what it would be like to live like this. In this country, this does and would not happen. However, these guys have no choice.

Sometimes it's all too easy to think we have had a bad day but this is a reality check and hits home just how lucky we all are.

Please help me in raising funds, anything you can contribute (however small) would be greatly appreciated.

What follows is an overview of the charity and the great work they do, for more information, please visit www.unicef.org.uk

Right now, millions of children are in danger. They face violence, disease, hunger and the chaos of war. Unicef ensures more children get life-saving food, vaccinations, education and protection than anyone else. Today, children in places like Syria, South Sudan and Yemen are caught up in violent conflict, with millions forced to flee their homes. In 2015, Unicef responded to 310 emergencies in 102 countries. Please donate whatever you can to my fundraiser for Unicef UK. With your help, we can build a safer world for children.
