I’m a registered nurse and the owner of Nurse Mel Aesthetics, a small clinic in Buckhurst Hill.

Like many people, I’ve been deeply affected by the recent news about violence against women. It isn’t something happening far away, it’s here in our communities too, and I wanted to do something practical to help.

So from 28 October to 10 December 2026, I’m donating £10 from every paid treatment at my clinic to SERICC, to support the work of the Synergy Essex partnership. Synergy Essex gives free, confidential, specialist support to anyone affected by sexual violence and abuse across Essex.

This page is for anyone who’d like to give directly, whether or not you’re a patient.

Every donation, big or small, goes straight to the charity and helps survivors get the support they need.

If you or someone you know needs support, you can contact Synergy Essex First Contact on 0300 003 7777 or visit synergyessex.org.uk.

Thank you so much for your kindness 💜
