Aila's Fund - little ways to help that make a big difference

As I have mentioned before, your VP (now soon to be President - gulp!) has a 16 year old daughter suffering from a disabling neurological condition, meaning that major house adaptations have to be made consisting of an extension to provide her with a downstairs bedroom and bathroom/WC.  Edek and I are looking at needing to raise £16,000+ towards this and have already been shown much kindness, generosity and support which is hugely appreciated.

There are a couple of ways in which anyone who would like to help can do so - small things but they are of enormous help.  Firstly, we have launched a "Buy A Brick" scheme.  For £5 you can buy one brick, for £12 three, for £20 five and then multiples thereof.  A very concrete way to be a part of Aila's future!

Secondly, we have silicone wristbands which are available for £1 each (plus 58p postage for up to five bands).  They come in red, blue, pink, teal and purple and in two sizes (the smaller size being most suitable for children and young teenagers).  Charity wristbands such as these are very popular and widely worn so do consider perhaps getting one or two for the cool young members of your family (or for the cool more mature ones come to that)!

Bricks and bracelets can both be purchased over at http://stjohnsprolife.blogspot.co.uk/p/ailas-fund.html where there is a "donate" button, or give me a ring on 01403 241859.

On Aila's behalf, thank you so very much.
