Space Chick Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Watching Russell Howards programme, he mentioned about this website... http://www.postpals.co.uk/ Basically, it allows members of the public to send a card or a nice message through to a sick child. I think this is such a lovely idea, and I shall be sending, I thought that other like minded Omleteers would want to too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 What a lovely idea. Looking at the list of illnesses is very grounding. I will have to spend some time composing an email as I want it to be relevant to their interests etc but it is definitely something that I will do. Thanks for posting the information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 What an absolutely wonderful idea. I've just had a look at the website and the bravery of the children brought me to tears. I will definitely send something and I have posted it onto Facebook too in the hope that others will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodcat Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I have to say that not only is it a fantastic cause Viki who runs it is truly an amazing girl. She has so many difficulties relating to her M.E. and has run this charity having been bed bound the whole time and this isn't the only charity work she does a truly inspirational girl. She runs a facebook group that she regularly updates with kids that need a little extra boost because either they are in hospital and have had a rough time or sadly do not have long left. Or situations where she needs help. If she gets a chance she will try and help the children to do things they really want to like recently post palls helped a little girl go and see the Dog Whisper's show at the O2 and they managed to get her a limo there and they actually arrange for her to meet him after the show. Sometimes there are posts asking for help or ideas about how to arrange these things or how to contact these people. Perhaps one day something might pop up and somone will think oh yes i know how to do that or i know them so it's well worth joining. I hope i've posted the link below. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#!/profile.php?id=648477107&ref=ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
