A question about : cancer research head shave

Hi guys. I'm trying to raise some money for cancer research, my target being Ј1000. I am a cancer survivor and now I want to give something back. I'm also donating my hair, which is below shoulder length, to be made into a wig for someone who has undergone cancer treatments and has lost their hair. Can anyone sponsor me? This is my page

A question about : Recycle elction stationery for charity

This is not a call for stationery but more in the way of something that I do in the hopes it might inspire others to do the same. So, here goes.

A question about : Action Medical Research Cream Teas

Fancy a little office afternoon tea or a jammy catch up with friends at home.
Try out Action Cream tea in a box!
They're Ј6 each but theres a minimum order of 10, so get the office or friends together and be all proper with some tasty tea and scrumptious scones
They'll get delivered on 19th June so you'll have to get your orders in by the 6th June! So not a lot of time left

A question about : Charitable Donations

Does anyone contribute a small amount monthly to a few charities? We thought it might be nice for each of us to nominate one charity to give a small amount to monthly - to get the kids more involved etc - so I thought Ј3 each as they are 5 of us - and the kids want the dog to nominate one too - so 6 of us - but will that even be worth bothering?

Or should we all decide one for the year and give Ј18 or whatever to that charity per month for this year and change next year...interested to hear how others give?

A question about : Knitted and crochet items
