Last month the Level 1 and 3 Hairdressing students at Harrow College took part in an initiative to organise fundraising activities in support of Safe and Sound Dorset; a charity that supports women who are vulnerably housed to access stable accommodation. The charity offers advice for housing, education and employment, 1-1 mentoring and specialist help for things like welfare.
The hairdressing students offered a wash, cut and blow dry to students, tutors, and the public alike, in exchange for a donation towards the charity. They also baked and sold delicious homemade treats as well as stocking fillers, teas and coffees.
As a result of their fantastic efforts, the hairdressing students have raised a massive £235.31 for Safe and Sound Dorset. These funds will be used towards the charity’s 2022 challenge of raising 22k to assist with offering free creative community sessions to women and girls, who are isolated or at risk in and around Bournemouth.
Well done!
