All wrapped up

How many shopping days 'til Christmas?
With the countdown on there is every chance you'll be hitting the shops over this weekend in search of festive gifts,
At Happy House we have Christmas all wrapped up.
The gift bags for the children are all packed and labelled ready for Santa to deliver and the Christmas decorations ready to go up.
Thanks to your support our Christmas celebrations which will take place in early December, when all our resident family will be joined by the kids now happily repatriated into families, will be very special indeed.
Our £1000 Festive Holiday Appeal launched exactly a week ago has raised  a wonderful £962 (inc donations not shown on the appeal page).
It will help cover the costs of  a full week when all together at Happy House they will enjoy different activities and delicious meals every day.,
The highlight will be a visit of Santa when each child will recieve a bag of goodies.
For some little ones, rescued from tragedy and hardship and brought into the care of our family in the last year, it will be the first time they will have celebrated Christmas and been touched by the magic of the season.
Your kindness makes this possible.
What a fantastic gift to our family YOU are.
Thank you.

They are both well and happy.
