This is a fundraiser with a difference. We thought that thowing a dinner party and sending out invites just wouldn't catch the attention of those who like fundraising events to have an unsual edge! So... instead, we are not going to throw a dinner party but still send out the invites.

Secret Mission are a brand new rock/pop band with a hint of metal and punk, and have recently released their debut album/DVD ‘In the UK’.

Three of the members are already helping NAPAC in different ways and now the whole band would like to help raise money for the charity by donating £2.00 for every £8.99 CD/DVD package sold through the NAPAC website!!

They have chosen ten of their favourite tracks including two songs for survivors called ‘Mariana’ and ‘Freedom’…plus a special bonus track! The accompanying DVD contains the director's cut of the promo single 'I Hate Reality TV', a photo gallery showing the fun they had making it, and the full “band only white room edit”. £8.99 is a bargain price for a proper CD and DVD in its case with a beautifully presented booklet containing the song lyrics!

Listen to samples of the album on their website now www.secretmissionband.com.

After ordering please forward your receipt to info@secretmissionband.com to enable the donation to be made.

Please support Secret Mission as they support us.

Alix Chapel has not only written a book...she has also compiled a CD...and it's not just any old CD...it's the very first CD where 100% of the profits will come to NAPAC.

At the start of each chaper of her book, Alix Chapel quotes the lyrics of a song that has meant something to her - these are the songs on the CD.

One of the unique qualities of "NAPAC Un-muted" is that not all of the songs are by mainstream artists. Several of them are written by survivors or supporters of survivors. For the full track list click here.

This is a great way to support NAPAC because not only are you donating to this charity you are getting a fantastic CD as well. To purchase your copy send your postal address and a cheque for £12 payable to NAPAC (this includes postage & packaging) to the following address:

So go on...give your mouse a heart and use www.everyclick.com/napac when searching the internet.

Please spread the word and get others using Everyclick too!

Nocardsthanks was set up by Louise Bright who received 61 cards when her daughter Martha was born. She was struck by the amount of money people had spent on cards and thought about what the special care baby unit (where Martha was born) could have done with it...as well as other charities in need of funding!

Sian Church is an artist who is a supporter of NAPAC and she has designed lots of cards for Louise's nocardsthanks website. By Sian's recommendation we are one of the few charities who are benefitting from this fantastic project. So let's all support Louise as she supports us...let's be proud to say no cards thanks!

If you ever shop online please check out the NAPAC buy.at website! There are many major retailers who have now signed up...you pay exactly the same price as on the retailers main websites but NAPAC gets some money from the sale. The money given to NAPAC comes straight from the retailer! Everyone's a winner!

Buy.at sends us electronic newsletters on a fairly regular basis letting us know about new offers and gift ideas. If you'd like us to forward this on to you let Helen know by sending an email to helen@napac.org.uk.

Amazon isn't one of the buy.at retailers but we can get money from them another way...to buy things from amazon and raise money for NAPAC at the same time click here.

Ever wanted your very own NAPAC t-shirt, teddy or apron? Well now you can! An American website called Cafepress allows for charities like NAPAC to send them a logo and they sort out all of the hard work!
