Kao Brands Royal Parks Half Marathon Massive!
Fundraising for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Here at Kao brands we always love a bit of a challenge, so we jumped at the chance to run in the Royal Parks Half Marathon on Sunday 10th October 2010.
We will be running the event in support of the HAIRraising charity.
HAIRraising is a fundraising appeal by the hairdressing industry to help raise £1 million towards new operating theatres at Great Ormond Street Hospital.
Founded by John Frieda and leading lights of the hairdressing world, the appeal asks salons to raise money by organising fundraising events and inviting customers to add a £1 donation to their bill.
As owners of the John Frieda brand and range of products, we at Kao were super keen to show some support to our good friend John Frieda and raise as much money as we possible can to support the HAIRraising appeal and Great Ormond Street Hospital.
Great Ormond Street Hospital has the largest centre for children needing brain surgery in the country, however it badly needs new facilities to help meet the increasing demand for its specialist care. The money we raise will be put towards two new operating theatres at the hospital.for more details on HAIRraising please follow this link http://www.gosh.org/hair-raising/
