Over the years we have aimed to pick a different local charity that we advertise on our blog and also nationwide and worldwide when possible.
Over the past years a lot of local charities in your home town have closed; those that are nation wide and world wide have also struggled.
What we found is a lot of them now do not just rely on foot fall, they also have their own online shops, use social media and companies like eBay and Amazon.
So when you have time to think about supporting the wider community where you live or even people national and oversea please consider to take the time to support a charity.
This could be done in a number of ways, thinks like donating unwanted items, making gifts they could sell, buying items, raising money, volunteering your time.
One thing that we do is try to research the charity to make sure they are register and to find out where the money they receive is used for. This information should be accessible or be able to be obtained upon request.
Thank you.

Hello, thank you for viewing my blog; please do not forget to subscribe via email to be kept up to date with any additional posts.
At the top of my blog I have added a number of local charities that I have supported and have been supported by that are near to my home town. I am a strong believer that charity begins at home and I am looking at setting up my own local charity in the future called "The Health Boat."
"The Health Boat" is to help to support the local community of my home town and to branch out to support people with in the midlands. It is called "The Health Boat" due to everyone being in the same boat at one time or another and that being healthy is the most important thing that I believe helps anyone have a happy and positive life.
My aim is to help to support people in being healthy in Mind, Body, Spirit, home and away. I aim to do this by selling Vegan products and items that are sold, made and produced within the UK. With the money raised to help to support people to help them self's.
To support other I would be looking at working in partnership with other local charities, services, business, training embellishments, the NHS and the local council.
To achieve this I will need the help and support from the local community to get the ball rolling. For now all I am asking for is for people to like and follow my fakebook page(s) and group(s)
The Health Boat.
It is not a Fad "It's a life style change."
For more information please contact me.
