Melissa is 14 years old and has no sense of danger, together with many other hurdles to include disability. As she grows she will need increasing financial support that is not currently available elsewhere. We would love to help buy Melissa her perfect wheelchair to cater for her condition.

The Smile Hamper is made especially for the raffle from sustainable wood with hand stamped cards and natural bows.

My friend Melissa – ‘The Smile Fund.’ Please kindly read this post #fundraising

I would be really grateful if you would keep an eye out for my next blog post – as, later I am bringing you my little fundraiser for this festive season and I only really have my blog as a platform due to time and balance in the real world. I have a little friend in the UK named Melissa who suffers with Angelman Syndrome and I have just finished making a hamper to raise a few pennies for the cause that I believe is very important for all who suffer with this. I want to thank Melissa’s mummy Kathy and her family for being so committed to this. It really is beautiful to see a family coming together.

Although it is a UK raffle due to postage – anyone around the world can donate directly the GoFundMe Page for Melissa. I don’t want any more presents. I have enough and people have been very kind but I would love you to please make a donation to Melissa if you are by any means able? I won’t be long – just putting all the information together. So, if you are in the UK …  you can try to win the raffle prizes – or, outside the UK, you can learn more and make a donation by visiting the link below.

It was International Human Rights day today. Corbyn made an outstanding speech in Geneva, but the UK media unbelievably appear to have vetoed what ought to have been headline news.

So it’s been left to a handful independent journalists and writers like me to report this event.

The International Peace Bureau presents the prestigious Sean MacBride Peace Prize to individuals, organisations or movements for their work for peace, disarmament and human rights. 

Sean MacBride was a founding member of Amnesty International, a hugely well-known and successful charity that was set up by…
