<div>Help Support Daley and His Family
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hi, I’m Martin, and I’m raising funds to support a wonderful family and close friends of mine who are going through an incredibly tough time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Daley’s Story
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Daley is 12 years old and has been diagnosed with a Germ Cell Brain Tumour located in his pineal gland — right in the centre of his brain. It’s something he’s likely had since he was little, but it was always thought to be migraines until a recent eye test at Specsavers spotted something unusual and sent the family straight to hospital.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Because of where the tumour is, surgery isn’t an option, so Daley is now on a long and intense chemotherapy plan. Life has been completely turned upside down — the family are in and out of hospital constantly, taking turns staying with him for weeks at a time. It’s taken a huge emotional and financial toll.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why I’m Getting Involved
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recently, Daley’s sister’s boyfriend and his mate both shaved their heads to raise money for The Brain Tumour Charity, raising an incredible £600! Now I’m joining the cause — this time, to raise funds directly to help the family while they focus on getting Daley through treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve known this family for years — mostly through rescuing them from DIY jobs they’ve “had a go at” and made worse — and I’m proud to be doing my bit to help them through this difficult time.
</div>

</div>
<div>The Big Shave
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On Friday, 31st October, I’ll be shaving off my hair and beard (see pics!) at The Albion, Dukinfield (SK16 4BZ).
</div>
<div>Some say I’ve been hanging onto my hair for far too long — and they might be right! Just in case it doesn’t grow back, I’ll be keeping my tash for Movember, so I’ll be looking a bit of a Cnut for a good cause throughout November!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How You Can Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every penny raised will go directly to Daley’s family — helping with:
</div>
<div>•	Travel costs to and from hospital
</div>
<div>•	Time off work during treatment
</div>
<div>•	Food and accommodation during hospital stays
</div>
<div>•	All the small but constant expenses that add up
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every bit of support truly makes a difference. Whether it’s a donation, a share, or simply a few words of encouragement — it all helps more than you can imagine.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who’s supporting. It means the world to me, and even more to this amazing family. ❤️
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On the day of the fundraiser, there will be cash buckets floating about for all donations (without the fees).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>There is also fancy dress on and the one and only Karl Magee, starting with games from 530pm onwards.
</div>
<div>The shave will be live, the time will have to be a spooky surprise (because I don’t know it yet ) It will be confirmed on the day.
