Fresh Perspective takes fundraising to new heights!

“It’s been a ridiculously challenging fortnight that’s tested our nerves to the absolute limit,” says Emily, “but I am proud of what we have achieved in honour of three amazing charities that are changing women’s lives for the better.”

The funds will be divided between The Dhalia Project, which supports women who have been victims of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), and Donor Direct Action – an initiative for activists working on a range of equality issues for women, as well as the global effort to end violence and discrimination.

‘The support from our chosen charities has been overwhelming – including from Dhalia Project Founder and FGM survivor Leyla Hussein.”

Fresh Perspective chose Women’s Aid as the beneficiary of the skydive, following reports that incidences of domestic abuse rise by 38 percent whenever the England football team lose a game, and by 26 percent when they win or draw; they have raised just over £1,200.

“Rosie and I were pushed out of a tiny plane and plummeted to the ground at a speed of 120mph! After the initial rush of exhilaration, I felt very calm and contemplative during the descent. I’m delighted to have completed a personal goal and would recommend a skydive to anyone.”

The Leyland sisters have revolutionised recruitment in Lancashire – saving clients up to 50 percent by only billing for the time spent searching for ideal candidates rather than charging traditional placement fees.
