Join us in celebrating a remarkable journey of transformation and hope! Alix Bramwell, Founder of The Gem & Mineral Shows UK, has achieved an incredible milestone by losing 14.5 stone. Now, he's set his sights on conquering Mount Snowdon/ Yr Wyddfacn this September, accompanied by a dedicated team from our community. Together, they're embarking on this ascent to raise vital funds for The Kimbilio Trust, a cause deeply cherished by our business and many others.

Our dedicated team includes Alix Bramwell (Founder, The Gem & Mineral Shows UK), Adrian Rose (Director, North West Crystals), Emily Coulter (Founder, Crystal Case Studies), Conor Donaldson, Fen Sheard, Becca Shillingford (Founder, By Becca), Taylor Bramwell, and Nez Cornish (Founder, The Crystal Cove).

We are excited to launch this initiative with an initial fundraising goal of £5,000. This will provide five teenage mums (formerly street girls) with five months of professional hair and beauty training in our hairdressing workshop, equipping them with valuable skills for a brighter future.

If we surpass our target, additional funds will go towards sponsoring six university students (formerly street children) at £1,500 per student per year. We will also support the essential food and healthcare costs for 50 street children at our day centre, with £2,500 per month ensuring their wellbeing.

Together, we can create lasting change and empower these young individuals with opportunities for a better future!

The Kimbilio Trust, through its flagship project Kimbilio, is committed to supporting vulnerable street children in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Operating in Lubumbashi, Kimbilio assists over 500 children each month, providing essential services such as food, emotional support, healthcare, and education. Their mission is to protect, nurture, educate, and empower these children, offering them safety and a path to a brighter future.
