Agata and Matthew, Karen and I have decided to get our children christened, they are 4, 5 and 7, so a bit old for conventional Christening presents and as they really don't need any more toys, we decided it would fit the spirit of the day to ask guests to donate to charity instead. Helen and Douglas house provides hospice care for children and young adults with life shortening conditions, plus support and respite for their families. They are almost entirely dependant on charity donations and the work they do is wonderful.
