Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 10th February I will reach the grand age of 100.  I have had an interesting life, travelled the world and enjoyed a loving family and home.  Whilst the war years were awful for many, we came through them unscathed.  I have led a charmed life.  As I approach my century a wonderful gift would be to help a young disadvantaged person to get their foot on the ladder, I hope your donation will give them a leg up towards a better future and perhaps their life might become charmed like mine.
