It's a special occasion - and I could have just let it pass (in fact we shall be away,in Madeira, on 'the day'!)

But I decided to invite friends over (I'm sorry; we can't offer accommodation so, for many folk it'll involve finding a wee place to stay) for a chat, a drink and a bite to eat.

I don't want prezzies (I'm just a 'lucky guy'!) - so I'm inviting anyone who might like to, to make a donation to WDM, as I have recently been elected to their National Council.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
