fund an awards gala night for children bereaved by suicide

Alfie's Squad supports children, and their families, who have been bereaved by suicide in and around the north west of England.

I want to organise a special night for the 40 children and young people we currently support by holding our very first Alfie's Squad awards ceremony!

The children who attend our group have gone through the worst trauma imaginable at such young ages and have shown such courage and resilience that I want to give them a night to remember with their very own gala evening.

Any money donated will go towards funding the venue, a sit down meal, a photographer, goodie bags and trophies for all of the children.

Alfie's Squad was set up by my now 15 year old son, Alfie, when he was 9, after losing his dad the previous year.

He wanted to meet other children in his situation as he felt very isolated and blamed himself. There were no peer support groups anywhere in the whole of the UK, so Alfie decided to step up and sort it out himself.
