I AM asking people to save their Christmas stamps and donate any unwanted Christmas presents to help raise money for the Guide dogs for the Blind charity.

As many of you have sent me hundreds of stamps/postcards already, I still ask everyone to send in stamps from their Christmas cards to support such a very good cause.

Unwanted presents can also be sent in to be used towards raising money through raffles and tombolas and anyone receiving a new mobile phone for Christmas can send in their old one to help the cause as well. Money can now even be raised from foreign coins or any old coins.

All items can be sent to David Staples, 14 Kingsnorth Road, Twydall, Gillingham, Kent ME8 6QY.
