Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 22nd July 2023, I am baldly going where many have gone before!

I have set myself the challenge of undergoing a sponsored head shave to raise vital funds for Our Space (Staffs) Ltd. This small charity, which has a special place in my heart, provides play and recreational activities for children, young people and adults with disabilities and their families. The Charity runs services from its purpose-built premises in Newcastle-under-Lyme and is heavily reliant on public funding.

Having a disability myself (Cerebral Palsy), I know how vital services like those provided by Our Space are. Being disabled can make a person feel extremely isolated and they may lack confidence when interacting with their non-disabled peers. Our Space gives people with disabilities a chance to be themselves without facing judgement, make friends and have new experiences - like riding a specialist trike for the first time. At the same time parents and carers get a much-needed break from their caring role, knowing that their child is in the safe hands of the Charity's dedicated team of staff.

Any support you can send my way is really appreciated by Our Space and myself. No matter the size of your donation, it will help to ensure that Our Space continues to provide its essential and much-loved services. If you are unable to donate, please don't feel obliged to do so. By simply sharing this page, you are helping to spread the word about my crazy challenge, which is a massive help.

Thank you for reading. Wish me luck!
