Responses last year included
“It took him to a whole other world. Could have gone on all day. Love to have it again, will look forward to it.”

Touch a Heart

Complimentary Massage Day: 24 April 2008

‘Touch a Heart’ gives us the chance to reach out to our senior citizens and let them know that we appreciate and care about them by giving them the gift of touch.

‘Touch a Heart’ is a unique charitable project founded by Beata Aleksandrowicz, massage therapist and co-founder of Pure Massage. After the great success of last year’s event, we would like to invite you to be a part of this year’s Massage Day taking place on Thursday 24th April 2008. Due to high demand we are expanding our London based project so that therapists from across the UK can now take part in this amazing day!

The Massage Day for senior citizens takes place in nursing homes, hospices, lunch clubs and anywhere else where there is a need for touch. If you are a qualified massage therapist and would like to donate your time to offer free massages please register! If you are unable to massage on 24th April please do still take part and massage on a day as close as possible to 24th April that is more practical for you.

If you would like to support our event in any other way, please contact us at info@touch-a-heart.org
