Last month the fundraising team hosted a launch event for their latest fundraising campaign the Henshaws 500 Challenge, the event was aimed at engaging local businesses and raising the profile of Henshaws in the Old Trafford area. After a successful turnout, The Beauty Bar based in Sale, Cheshire is the latest company to sign up to the challenge!
The Beauty Bar will kick-off with one of two exciting events planned for their challenge in September with a Massage Roadshow. Between 10am and 1:30pm every Thursday and Friday, businesses in the Altrincham and Old Trafford area will benefit from a 5 minute stress relief tension massage to the sounds of relaxing music. The massages will be performed fully clothed in a massage chair offering workers a perfect break in their day for a minimum donation of £1. The second event, planned for November, will be an event that will give the staff at The Beauty Bar the chance to show off their other talents in an evening showcasing ‘Beauty Bar’s Got Talent.’
Established 9 years ago in Sale, The Beauty Bar aims to be a friendly and caring salon, where clients can feel at home. Manager of the salon, Deborah Bond, says “we wanted to be different from the usual salons, providing a quality service at affordable prices with top salon brands. The core of our business is to care and in our sensitive industry to listen.”
The Beauty Bar has chosen to support Henshaws after reading about Oscar Hughes, our ambassador for the ‘Helping Henshaws’ campaign run by the Advertiser Newspaper Group. Deborah says, “I remember Henshaws from my school days particularly as I have lived in the area most of my life. As a business we wanted to really show the local community how we care and Henshaws’ 500 Challenge was the perfect opportunity to do this. The team really appreciate life is challenging in many ways and we felt that supporting people, like Oscar, with visual impairments would educate our team and clients about the needs and difficulties that some people have. We are fully embracing this challenge to not only support Henshaws but to bring our team together and show we are more than your average salon!”
