AMAZING!<br />

The generosity of our supporters and donors drives<br />

everything that we do. We’re delighted to share some<br />

of our fantastic fundraisers’ stories.<br />

Soffie’s head shave<br />

As someone with chronic tinnitus, Soffie chose to<br />

brave the shave in August <strong>2020</strong> to raise money<br />

for the BTA.<br />

“I'm raising money for this charity because they<br />

gave me the support and information I needed<br />

about the condition when it first began, which is<br />

usually the scariest time. By raising awareness<br />

and supporting ongoing research, we will one day<br />

beat tinnitus.”<br />

Soffie raised an incredible £847.50<br />

including Gift Aid.<br />

Molly’s silence<br />

During Tinnitus Week 20<strong>21</strong>, Molly completed<br />

a four-day sponsored silence (whilst also working<br />

at her part-time job at Morrisons and moving into<br />

a new flat, making it extra challenging!).<br />

“Tinnitus affects everyone differently. For me,<br />

it almost took away someone I love. For that<br />

reason, I am hoping to raise awareness of the<br />

effects it can have and to raise money so that<br />

we can all hope for a cure.”<br />

Molly’s fundraising total was generously<br />

matched by Morrisons, which meant that<br />

every donation was doubled. Thanks<br />

to Molly and Morrisons, we received<br />

an amazing £2,202.<br />
