Last week I was asked by a lady called Veronica if I had any Birthday cards that I could donate to her charity. She is part of FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS which is a group of people who help children with learning difficulties.
Many of these children never receive a Birthday card and it is the charities aim to make sure that each child will get some on their special day.
I was delighted to help out and I sent her a box of 125 cards for children of all ages ... boys and girls ... complete with envelopes to use as and when she likes.
And I have more that I will send too.
I also offered to add their address to my blog post to see if any of you kind souls would like to do the same.
Many of you make cards and then they sit there never to be used.
This is s way to put them to good use and give pleasure to children around the UK.

So if you are interested then either contact her or send your cards for the attention of

and tell her where you have read about her request
More tomorrow ...
