Story

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO DONATED AND WHO CAME TO THE EVENT TO HELP RAISE MONEY FOR A VERY IMPORTANT CAUSE!

The morning was a real success, 45 children and 34 carers and parents all sang together and helped to raise £549.80!!! I originally set out with a target of £200 so I am more than delighted.

Thank you to all the volunteers, Jenny, Cara, Theresa, Janice, Tara, Melissa and all the mums who got stuck in especially Jo (Zaki's mum) who was the first to arrive and helped me organise everyone coming in.

I am sure UNICEF are very grateful and they will put this money to good use.

Thanks again!

Love Shirley x

YO BABY MUSIC & MOVEMENT  CLASS WITH SOCIAL FUN PLAY SESSION INCLUDING DRINKS AND SNACKS FOR ALL.

 

100% of donations raised will go to UNICEF


On Wednesday 17th August at 9.40am please come to the Surbiton Library Hall to sing and dance to help raise money for Unicef Charity to help the thousands of starving children in Somalia right now.

 

Because of the phone hacking scandal Somalia has not been receiving the coverage it needs. Parts of Somalia are suffering a famine after the worst drought in 60 years. See below.

 

Taken from the Unicef website: http://www.unicef.org.uk/ :

This week, the United Nations formally declared a famine in parts of southern Somalia;

Right now, today, children in East Africa are facing a desperate crisis caused by prolonged drought, soaring food prices and ongoing conflict in Somalia.

UNICEF is the main provider of ready to use therapeutic food in all three countries, but we desperately need more funds in order to help us reach every child.
