My names Dan, I am lucky enough to be part of Forward Footsteps, a supported accommodation provider in Cheshire East and Stoke-On-Trent.

We at Forward Footsteps have discussed how important this cause is and I have decided to try and raise some money on my company's behalf.

I will be allowing my team to take part in shaving my head and my beard!

For some strange reason I have also agreed to let them Wax my chest!

This small inconvenience in my life will hopefully help massively towards this great cause.

This exciting event will take place at the end of February / beginning of March 2025,

Everyone will be invited to join us on the day where there will also be a bake sale and fundraising. I will edit this to include the location, date and time once more is confirmed.

🚨 URGENT APPEAL: Help Save Life-Saving Domestic Abuse Services in Cheshire

In just 10 weeks, thousands of domestic abuse survivors and their children could lose their lifeline. After 47 years of serving our community, MyCWA (Cheshire Without Abuse) faces the closure of our Crewe support centre, vital support services, and Macclesfield store and community hub – all due to the complete withdrawal of council funding.

What's at stake:

• Our 24/7 crisis response service

• Safe spaces where survivors can access immediate help

• Life-changing support for 4,000+ adults and children annually

• One of the UK's most inclusive refuges - where families can stay

together with their pets.

• Crucial children's services and recovery programmes

• Emergency food, clothing, and practical support for those fleeing

abuse.

⏰ Time is critical. In 10 weeks, these vital services could be gone forever without your support.

Thank you for helping us continue saving lives in your community.
