We provide financial support and assistance to hair and beauty professionals in need

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

HABB is a charity that helps individuals and families who have worked in the hairdressing and beauty industries in a number ways -helping children who are affected by bereavement and domestic abuse; paying a quarterly beneficiary payment to aid basic living in addition to buying much needed equipment for the disabled. HABB assists those affected by illness, accident and circumstance who, through no fault of their own, need our help. It is for children like Campbell (see below) that I am running the Marathon. 

Campbell has epilepsy, hydrocephalus and severe developmental delay.  He is confined to a wheelchair and  is cared for by his mother (Campbell's Dad walked out when Campbell was born).

His mother, as well as looking after Campbell, still works part-time in a local salon.

HABB have purchased a specially adapted car seat, video monitor and sensor pad and financed a vehicle adaptation to accommodate Campbell.   We also supported his Mum while Campbell was in intensive care as she was unable to work, as she was constantly at his bedside.

 HABB has supported Campbell since 1999 – his mother has been in the hair industry for 29 years.
