THE SECRET MILLIONAIRE: Jennifer Cheyne

Jennifer Cheyne has turned a £2,000 loan from her father into a multi-million-pound fortune and one of Edinburgh’s top hairdressing empires. But Jennifer is leaving behind her luxurious lifestyle to go undercover in Aberfan, a former coal mining village in the Welsh valleys, which was the scene of the 1966 tragedy. Now the coal mines are long gone, leaving behind an ageing population. As she gets to know the local community, Jennifer is struck by the extraordinary lengths people go to for their neighbours. After an emotional few days, Jennifer must make some hard decisions about who to help.

    Hi Jennifer,
    I saw the programme last night it, warmed my heart, although I am a little saddened. I have a 9 year old grandaughter, who has lived with me since, she was 13 days old.I am a disabled lady and am unable to do lots of things with Leah, she is my carer she is supported by Crossroads here in Cardiff.But due to funding issues Crossroads Young Carers in cardiff are under threat of closure.There are 80 children of crossroads books, who care for a parent, brother, or sister, they deserve a day out, away from the stress of there hard days and nights at home. The age range is from 7 to 17, theses kids are unpaid carers, but do it out of love for the one they are caring for.Please would you consider helping them financially so they can continue to help these kids have a little time out. Many thanks contact details Crossroads in cardiff.The support worker is CHARLIE JENNINGS on 02920577300
