Q Hair and Beauty encourage us to Be Kind


Q Hair and Beauty salons recently held a day of kindness, raising funds for mental health charity, The Samaritans, at their salons in Chichester, Donnington and Midhurst in West Sussex.

The event, driven by raising awareness of the Be Kind culture, saw cake sales and donations from clients at the salons. 

Commenting on their fundraising day, Q Hair & Beauty's Managing Director, Dawn Lawrence Grant, says:

“I personally feel very strongly about protecting our own team from the challenges of Facebook and Instagram. Social media isn't going anywhere and we can't stop it, in fact as a business we need it. But cyber bullying is sadly becoming a bi-product of the benefit the social media revolution has brought us."


She adds:

“How can we protect our team and ourselves from it? I don't have any of the answers except to say we are aware of it, we are not ignorant of it, we educate to prevent, we educate to provide support - what we can't educate is how to be kind.

“Fortunately, although social media and our business thrive and depend on image-conscious guests, we also naturally breed kindness in our culture at Q. Kindness is rewarded, celebrated and encouraged amongst our team and we are proud to be doing our bit in raising money for The Samaritans.”
