A Donation To Be Used Specifically

On the 14th of June whilst visiting my family in Birmingham I met, for the first time, Julie Chipperfield-Carr of the Holistic Society and also her friend Wendy Tomkins who makes and sells beautiful beaded bracelets in aid of my charity One Life.

Julie also raises money for One Life by holding fund raising events at the Holistic Society whenever the appropriate time arises and this is wonderful support for a small charity.

I was delighted to finally meet both Julie and Wendy and during our evening together Wendy gave me a surprise cheque for £360. She had, unknown to me, made, and with the help of friends, sold 180 bracelets in order to donate the money for the sole purpose of building a breeze block house for either one of our child headed families living in dire conditions or one of our elderly grandparents carers also living in a similar conditions and in need of a safe environment to bring up the children in their care.

Wendy told me that her aim is to eventually have enough money raised to build another two breeze block homes and this would be wonderful.

My grateful thanks go to both Julie and Wendy for their loving support.
