How you can help

Manchester entrepreneur Michael Josephson (pictured), Director of Stocks Manchester, who lives in Alderley Edge, has been a ChildLine supporter for over 10 years and is also a Patron of the NSPCC. 

He currently sits as Chairman of the renowned North West ChildLine Ball committee in Manchester which raised £100,000 at their 2012 Ball.  Michael said: 

"I am thrilled to support the NSPCC as I believe the charity’s work is vital.  Their services make such a huge difference to the lives of children and young people which is why I am happy to be involved. 

"I would recommend volunteering to fundraise to anyone as a great way of socialising and helping a great cause.  Like a lot of people in business, I have a very hectic work schedule, but I always have time to give to the NSPCC”.
