Recently becoming a parent myself, I think what TACT do for the fostering and adoption of children and young people is a wonderful thing. I am also personally involved with the organisation as my mother works as a Social Worker for TACT.</span></span></p> <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span> <p style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;">So please donate what you can, support me through the training and cheer for me on the big day &ndash; 22.04.11</span><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-themecolor: dark2;"> </span><span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"><span style="color: #000000;">&ndash; it&rsquo;s a great day for spectators too.<span style="color: black;"></span></span></span></span></p> <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span> <p style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;">I will be organising a number of charity events in the forth coming months; a village fair and walk up Mount Snowdon are some of the early suggestions </span><span style="color: black; font-family: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-hansi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span><em><span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> </span></em><span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"></span></span></p> <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="color: #000000;"> <div> <div> <div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"> </span></span></span></span></span></div> </div> </div> </span> </span></div> <div><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span></div>
