Help to provide Christmas cheer

3:21pm Monday 3rd December 2007 in Letters

Sir.-I would like to make a special appeal to your readers, by inviting them to make a difference at Christmas by holding a special "Christmas Cheer" event, in order to raise money for The Children's Trust. This is a national charity which provides care, education and therapy for children with multiple disabilities and complex health needs.

With the Christmas festivities fast approaching, what better way to start the celebrations than by organising a get-together with family or friends and, at the same time, helping to raise money for some very special children.

To help you organise your very own special party, The Children's Trust can provide you with invitations, posters, leaflets, collection boxes and balloons.

To find out more, simply call Sarah on 01737 365019, or e-mail scure@thechildrenstrust.org.uk

The Children's Trust's current fundraising campaign aims to raise more than £7million to build a new, purpose-designed national rehabilitation centre for children with an acquired brain injury.

By holding a "Christmas Cheer" party you will be making a difference. Thank you.
