Most of you obviously know I support SADS, Sudden Adult Death Syndrome because of my Stephen, I also support regularly to Cancer research, cos we lost Gran to cancer, and it was the hardest 24 hours in the hospital I ever put in, I also donate monthly to a Blind Charity, as I know somebody who is partially sighted and I hate having to rely on my glasses for close work. But there are so many good causes around that the Government do not fund, if you have been lucky enough to have no connections to any, how do you choose?

I regularly support Cancer Research, SADS and Woodgreen Animal Shelters.

I sponsor 3 charities on a regular basis Cancer Research, British Heart Foundation and NSPCC the 3 of them are charities that help with problems that have affected my life.

Im also a friend of my local hospital to raise funds to provide equipment for the childrens ward to make the little ones stays in hospital a friendly happy one.

Animal charities and I sponsor a child through World Vision.
The reasons are that Animals are just a huge soft spot for me.always have been and always will be.
I sponsor a child because to me its the best way to help 3rd world countries.

Air Ambulance (in the hope I never need it)
St Giles Hospice for the same reason as the air ambulance
Alziemhers as I saw my gran die in great pain and distress from this awful illness
Stoke Association as my Dad is battling back after one.
Children with Leukaemia because no child derserves to suffer...
and any other charity that waves a box under my nose but here I risk a slating...I do try and concentrate on charity in the UK first and foremost

I give to most charities but annually support Debra, Cancer and Heart Foundation.

So many good causes, I will try to give a little to each - bless you all for being so kind, but remember, Charity begins at home-GoodnightXX.
God Bless. Now I have a new one, premature babe's. XX.

I support Cancer Research,mainly The Christie in Manchester as they saved my life(dare I say it?)57 years ago!,and I thank God for radium.That is my special.My O.H's special is the Lifeboats.
We also support Welsh Air Ambulance,and Heart foundation.Give to others,but not on a regular basis,as you can't support everything,but we do our best.

I sponsor a child in Ethiopia, so that's a regular monthly donation plus anything extra I wish to send as a gift direct to him.

My favourite charity is War Child, for which I've done fundraisers. I feel that as a result of war (and there are plenty of wars/conflicts worldwide when you stop and think about it) well, it's not the childrens fault that they miss out basic needs, all the things that we take for granted. Even some pencils for school can make all the difference.

There are other charities I will donate to, but not necessarily on a regular basis. I'd like to, but can't make the money stretch forever!!
