Story

Hi, 

I'm Damien. My company, finix, (www.finixgroupltd.com) works closely with the Fircroft Trust (www.thefircrofttrust.org), a charity based in Surbiton in the Royal Borough of Kingston. 

They're a fantastic charity and support people with various support needs, including Learning Disabilities, Autism, and MH/emotional wellbeing needs in their services. 

They do so much good for the people who are supported by them, and their local communities, that I am keen to raise money which will be put to good use by them.

Money raised will be used, in part, towards the garden work happening at the Ditton Road HQ, which will enhance opportunities for people who use services to interact with the outdoor environment in a more meaningful and inclusive way.

I will be having my first (and likely ONLY) ever MMA cage match on 13th April 2023, in a bid to raise awareness for the Fircroft Trust, and raise money for the amazing work they do there.

Anyone who knows me knows I'm a lover - not a fighter, so this is pretty alien to me, BUT I love a challenge, I never give up, and I'm excited for the opportunity to take part in this unique event alongside some amazing competitors.

Please sponsor me and help raise money for the Fircroft Trust, where the money raised will go towards doing a lot of good for the local people who access their services.

Thank you for taking the time to read,

Damien
