Yogini Laura Truesdale who runs successful art courses through her academy, Brushtrokes Courses, did an online one-night special for Mukti.
Yogini Laura knew that once lockdown came into force, our fund-raising would suffer a blow. She then went into action. She opened a ‘Just Giving’ page and requested donations for her hair-shave. In the process she raised a whopping £1,280 and all the funds came to Mukti.
