Long standing fundraiser Linda, has collected donations from the generosity of the clientele of her local pub “The White Swan” Needham Market in Suffolk for years, in support of her son Ben with TSC.
What fundraising have you been up to and what has the response been?
I regularly donate the Donation tin collections at local pub and have been amazed at the generosity of people.
I am doing a Raffle at friends 60th Birthday, and am collecting gifts from my local shops and supermarkets
What motivates you to do all of this?
My son Ben whom has TSC and I want to help do something for him and so the TSA can continue their research, so that a cure might be found one day, I am also motivated and continually amazed at the generosity of the people at my local pub where I have been continually emptying the collection tins for a number of years.
Any advice for people who want to support the TSA but don’t know how to get started?
Just do something however small, it will make you feel you are making a difference, its easy just contact the TSA fundraising team!
