Why not organise an event for About Face?
In the past we have enjoyed quiz nights, walks, BBQs,
skittles matches, boat trips, fashion swaps,
concerts, dinner parties, luncheons and social evenings
in a really friendly atmosphere.
Supporters have organised raffles, concerts, fashion shows,
barn dances, golf tournaments, mufti days, cake sales,
open gardens, Xmas light switch ons and much more!
Would you like to challenge yourself?
Treks, skydives, mast climbs, parachute jumps, bike rides,
