Help charity doll out cuddles

Ella’s Project is asking you to Donate a Cuddle this Christmas.
The charity has teamed up with Simon Lord, of Lord’s Collectables, for this year’s bid to raise smiles at Christmas.
As previously, Ella’s Project founder Mark Le Sage is asking for your donations of brand new soft toys.
They’ll be provided as presents to children who might otherwise not receive them.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions they will have to be brand new.
But Lord’s Collectables is providing another method too where you can either just donate to Ella’s Project or you can pay £2.50 and buy a Gund cuddly toy for a child.
Mark said: “We are extremely grateful to Simon for his support during what has been a difficult time and continues to be for so many of the children and families we assist.
“Of course we could not do any of it with out the help and kindness of the local community as well as those from further afield.
“This Christmas will be tougher than normal for many of us, but for some it could be the worst they have experienced.
“For most of us Christmas is a joyous time, full of light and hope, for those less fortunate it only increases their sense of despair. Please help us to support those children and families in crisis in 2020.”
