OM DENNE EPISODE
When Birmingham Children’s Hospital saved Kevin Jackson's grandson Ted's life, Kevin decided he wanted to give something back.
In this special episode of the Brush Wizards Podcast, Kevin and his son-in-law Matt join Gary Proctor to share the story behind an extraordinary fundraising journey.
From climbing Snowdon at night and walking 100 miles across Scotland to trekking 70 miles through the Sahara, Kevin and his family have pushed themselves to their limits to raise money for the hospital. One Sahara fundraising event involving their group and another group raised approximately £120,000.
Kevin also talks about bringing his fundraising into the painting and decorating industry, the generosity of manufacturers and suppliers at the Painting & Decorating Show, and his upcoming project to refurbish facilities used by critical-care staff at Birmingham Children’s Hospital.
It's an inspiring conversation about family, the decorating community and what can happen when people come together for a good cause.
