As you might already know, Zoe works for Aurora New Dawn, a Charity supporting those experiencing domestic abuse, sexual violence and stalking in Hampshire.

This time we're not fundraising for Aurora though - we're doing something different. Zoe Mark, Rory & Jim are joining with the Aurora Team, and others, to raise funds for the Hollie Gazzard Trust.

At the Aurora ball in February, we were privileged to hear Nick Gazzard speak about the horrific murder of his  daughter, Hollie, by her ex-partner in 2014. Hollie was just 20 years old. 

After her death, Nick set up the Hollie Gazzard Trust, and now campaigns tirelessly in Hollie's memory, to raise awareness of domestic abuse, to reduce anti-social behaviour and knife crime, and to fund young hairdressers through their training where they would not otherwise have the money to study. Hollie was passionate about hairdressing and the trust works to support others in her memory.

We are supporting the amazing work of the HGT by taking on the Active Warrior Challenge, in Southampton, on 1st July. It's a 5k obstacle race which is not going to be easy by any stretch! You can find out more here: http://www.activewarrior.co.uk/#about

Please support us to raise as much money for the HGT as possible so they can continue their work in Hollie's memory. You can find out more about the work of the Trust - and about Hollie - here: http://holliegazzard.org/about/

All monies raised will be collected by Aurora and sent directly to HGT.

Thanks everybody! 

Zoe, Mark, Rory & Jim xxx
