Having a “Night In” is as simple as this: invite everyone round to yours to eat, drink, laugh, catch up and do something magnificent by donating the money you would have spent on a night out to Scottish Huntington’s Association. You can even set up a Facebook event and invite all your friends.
Call your night a cosy catch up, team building, come dine with me, movie night or why not add a theme. The possibilities are endless and it’s so easy.
It’s a perfect time of the year to stay home with special people and really catch up on that quality time together.
Because of you and the funds you raise, you will make a huge difference to families affected by Huntington’s disease.
So, whether you raise £50, £500 or £1000, every penny and pound will be put to good use and this is the difference your savings will make...
Saving £3 on a bag of chips on the way home would pay for a 5 minute call that can change a life
Saving £16 on a round of drinks would provide One to One counselling to a young person affected by HD
Saving £30 on your taxi home would pay for a home visit to someone affected by HD
Saving £350 on the group’s total
bill on a meal out is the cost of an
HD Specialist’s day, which is literally a lifeline for families affected by HD
