Dust the BBQ off and get cooking for charity

Dust the BBQ off and get cooking for charity

With summer virtually here and long warm summer nights on the horizon, now is the time to brush the dust off the BBQ and get grilling all in the good name of charity.

Summer is just one reason to have fun and have a BBQ but we can give you lots more reasons – 185 in fact.  That’s the number of families that The Haven Wolverhampton is currently working with who are or who have experienced Domestic Violence.

To raise awareness of this as well as vital funds we are calling to the people of Wolverhampton to dust off their BBQs, don an apron and cook up treats for friends and family. There are many things that people can do – for instance, asking people to make a donation for their food and refreshments, if there are children why not paint their faces for a small charge or people can simply TEXT BBQS14 to 70070 followed by the amount they wish to donate? All funds raised will help us continue to deliver our vital work supporting women and children affected by domestic abuse and homelessness.

Michaela Hodges Donor Development Assistant said “Getting involved in The Haven’s Summer BBQ Appeal is a great reason for a get-together with family and friends.  There are lots of ways that people can get involved and they can make it as easy or as innovative as they wish.”
