Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

This JustGiving page has been created by Team Wolf at NCS ( National Citizen Service). NCS is a government funded organisation which allows young people aged between 15 and 17 to have experiences which they will remember for a life time. For the next two weeks we will be raising money and awareness for a charity called Headway that works with adults aged 18 and over to improve life after brain injury. 

We are raising money for Headway because it is a cause very close to our hearts which deserves more recognition within the general public. We are conducting a social experiment to see how fatigue affects simple tasks and activities. We are not sleeping for 24 hours and comparing our results from when we are fully rested and when we are feeling fatigue. We do understand that 24 without sleep does not at all compare to what people with brain injuries experience daily but we felt that this is the closest possible way we could try and experience their everyday struggle. We are also conducting a bake sale on the 23rd of July 2019 in the Galleries, Bristol. Any donation would be greatly appreciated to both our NCS team and Headway.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

About the charity
