Paul's Ibiza Adventure |
 |
"Franco, Nicola’s boss a hair stylist put me up to having my hair dyed ready for my trip to Ibiza.
My son a famous DJ Eats Everything would be well surprised so I decided to walk in my son's footsteps and hit the clubbing scene in Ibiza. For me this was something completely out of my comfort zone but thought it would be a great idea to raise some more funds for NCSF.
The Saturday before my trip I spent 2 hours in the salon having my hair coloured, lots of peroxide and a blue tint!! Yes I was ready to hit the raving scene!
A great time was had visiting beach clubs in Playa D’en Bossa meeting quite a number of the event owners, , . One of the places we did visit was “Space” a huge facility and plenty of dancing and thousands of people.
A real eye-opener to say the least !!! Thank to all the generous donations I have raised £605 for NCSF !!! " |

NCSF relies on fundraising events such as those listed above without which we would have been able to help many families that could not find help elsewhere.
NHS, Macmillan, Maggie's Cancer Care have all referred families to us and we have been able to help them in a very difficult time of their lives.
So if you can help with any of the above events or suggest a new one please use the contact page to let us know or click the Donation button on the right. |
