Every year we support thousands of children and families right across the country. We provide rehabilitation to help children make the best recovery possible after a serious accident or illness, both at our national specialist centre in Tadworth and in the community.

Story

Maryanne, Jenn, DJ, and Tori have put together a team that's going to drive a £410 car (aka “Greased Lightning”) to Monte Carlo from London on September 16 to raise money for the Children's Trust.  The Children's Trust is an incredible organization that provides care, education, therapy and rehabilitation to children with multiple disabilities, complex health needs and acquired brain injuries.

We're asking you to help us raise money for a great charity by donating on this webpage.  All of the money you donate goes to the Children’s Trust – The Beauty School Dropouts are covering the cost of our trip.  We have to raise £2000 before we set out on September 16 and we need your help! 

DJ’s already got the Danny Zuko accent down.  Jenn is black-spandex-pants ready.  Maryanne has always been a bad influence with a heart of gold and Tori dropped out of beauty school years ago.  There’s still work to do though - during the next couple of weeks we’ll be assembling our costumes, trying to make our 1994 station wagon look like a 1948 Ford, practicing our dance moves, and looking for parking spaces for the car. 

Support the Beauty School Dropouts as we set off on our adventure driving from London to Monte Carlo in our banger, facing many a challenge on the way - not least of which will be to arrive on time for the cross channel ferry. 

We can promise numerous adventures, tales to tell, and of course special moments captured on camera for everyone’s enjoyment once we’re back in London.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.  Please dig deep and donate now.
