Story

*** IMPORTANT - DUE TO THE LOCAL LAW - IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF THE UAE, PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THIS LINK ON ANY SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS; UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY TO BURN ON FINES, AND/OR FANCY SHARING SOME JAIL TIME WITH ME (I'VE HEARD THEIR BRUNCH ISN'T GREAT!) *** If you are not in the UAE then please feel free to share the bejeezus out of it! 

In November 2019, I am spending a month volunteering in a Baby Home in Mwanza, Tanzania. It is something that I have wanted to do for many years, decades even, and now is the time! I would really love to make as much of a difference as I can, and money really can make a huge difference, especially if it is used wisely, which I guarantee it will be.  All the money donated here will go to the charity, it is NOT paying for me to get there, or for any part of my stay.

Forever Angels UK promotes and raises awareness of orphaned and abandoned children in Tanzania and supports initiatives to alleviate these problems. They aim to promote general charitable purposes for the benefit of the community of Tanzania, in order to address and alleviate social and economic disadvantage to impoverished, and HIV positive, families; and orphaned or abandoned children. 

Please do look at their website to see the great work that they do, both for the children and the wider community.

I don't expect you to donate your hard earned cash for nothing in return, so my pledge to you is that, if enough money is raised, I will give you all a good belly laugh - by shaving my head.....the whole lot. Grade 1. I will post before and after pictures (and a video of the shaving, if I remember). I will also be donating my hair to The Little Princess Trust, so you would be part of making a double charitable contribution! 

I am (presumptuously) thanking you in advance for any donation you see fit to give (and don’t forget to add Gift Aid, if you are a UK taxpayer). You will have made a huge difference, so you can go to sleep tonight feeling rather proud of yourselves. 

With lots of love from me, and my hair.
