Wow. That sucks
Almost every shop around here allows it. We just rotate between them

You could set up an ebay shop with some items branded in your fundraising logo (maybe you know of someone who could logo things cheaply) and then sell them at a higher price and advertise online that all profits go to x

You could ask any friends/family if they have anything they want to sell and you could sort it all out and put it on eBay for them and sort it so you get to keep 15% of what you get or something. It's not much effort and could raise a nice sum if you get enough things or a couple of high value items .

Not sure how well branded items would work, due to the low knowledge of Russ, but definitely something to look into if the price is right!

Hmm, what sort of items were you thinking of?

Unfortunately shaving my hair is unlikely to raise much, being male and sporting a short haircut it wouldn't be that drastic. Definitely right that it is a fantastic earner for the right person though - a friend has just done it and raised £1,250!

Ah - good point :L


Hmm maybe you could persuade any female friends who are aware of Russ to do the whole bald stuff?

I must say I think it's amazing how much charity work you do

HELP UR COMMUNITY and do chores for v small charge

water their flowers, walk their dog, do their shopping, wash their car, clean their gerbils cage

One person does actually spring to mind who could POSSIBLY be interested in that - I mean there are more, just it would be difficult to persuade them to do it on my behalf..

Also, the charity stuff is just something I enjoy doing - I have just been privileged to get the chance to visit some incredible places, and meet some even more extraordinary individuals. I would like to think everyone in the position to do so would try and help others at some point if they can

This is a nice idea actually - did something similar by assisting at the local may fayre two years ago (did it last year too, just not for a fee).

I've done it for my parents before and got 20% of the money because they don't have the time and they've given me DVD box sets, massage chairs, surround sound speaker systems. A load of bits and bobs which can give me a tenner here and a fiver there but it all adds up with hardly any effort
