Accessible Counselling Tullamore (ACT) hosting a fun and daring fundraiser to support their vital service

ACT is hosting a fun and daring fundraiser to support their vital service and need your help.

On the 29th of March, ACT are inviting brave souls to take part in their Head Shave, Leg Wax & Hair Dye Challenge – all in the name of raising funds for accessible mental health support in our community. Whether you’re up for shaving it all off, rocking a bold new hair colour, or enduring the sting of a leg wax, your participation will make a real difference.

Why Get Involved?

ACT provides professional, affordable and timely counselling to those who need it most, ensuring that the people of the Midlands are not left struggling alone. By taking part or sponsoring someone who is, you’re directly helping to keep our life-changing services running.

How You Can Help:

 Take part – Sign up to shave your head / beard, wax your legs / back / chest, or dye your hair!

 Fundraise – Set a target and ask friends, family, and colleagues to support you.

 Sponsor a participant – Can’t take part? Donate to someone who is.

 Spread the word – Share the event on social media and encourage others to join in.

This is your chance to have some laughs, challenge yourself, and show your support for improving the mental health of our community. Together, we can make a real impact.

Are you up for the challenge? Contact any member of the ACT the Fool committee:
