I hope 2016 is treating you well so far. This cold snap is doing nothing to ease my mood and I could seriously do without what feels like a daily dose of legendary characters passing away \u2013 RIP Lemmy, Bowie, Rickman and Wogan.\u00a0However, I&#8217;ve decided to put the January blues behind me and start the year on a good footing. As you know by now, I&#8217;m no do-gooder and this may run the risk of sounding like an Obama speech, but I have wanted to get involved in some sort of charity work with Smithers for a while now and I&#8217;ve finally made the decision to go for it having stumbled across a brilliant local charity with an awe inspiring founder.<\/p>\n<p>Trying to choose a charity is a bit of a minefield and definitely pulls at the heart strings (or swinging brick in my case), so when a member of the Smithers&#8217; team introduced me to The Matt Hampson Foundation and its ethos of \u201cGet Busy Living\u201d, it immediately appealed to me.<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/matthampsonfoundation.org\/about-us\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-716\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In 2005, England Under 21 Rugby star Matt Hampson suffered life changing injuries during a training session, which resulted in him being paralysed from the neck down and breathing via the aid of a ventilator. Whilst some may deem this as the beginning of the end, that was absolutely not the case for Matt, who has since battled hard to live as normal a life as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Never one to wallow in self pity, other peoples suffering was never far from Matt\u2019s mind and in December 2010 The Matt Hampson Foundation was formed with a mission to inspire and support young people also\u00a0seriously injured through sport. Awe inspiring doesn\u2019t quite cover it, does it?! I\u2019m not sure I would have had the same admirable disposition faced with that scenario. \u00a0Matt works tirelessly within the foundation mentoring, providing friendship and advice, fundraising and delivering inspirational talks to young people and businesses around the country. With a great team behind him and a healthy stream of ambassadors, we couldn\u2019t be happier to finally be getting involved with Team Hambo!<strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-718 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smithersofstamford.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/logo3.jpg\" alt=\"logo3\" width=\"276\" height=\"86\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So this March we will be hosting our Smither&#8217;s Marvel-lous Online Charity Auction on the 1st and the Auction will run until the 2nd of April, with all proceeds to go to the Matt Hampson Foundation in a bid to help continue Matt\u2019s great work and contribute to supporting others now facing the same path.
