WITH the holiday season now in full swing, please will you spare more than a thought for children who, without our help, will never get away at all?
They are young kidney patients whose lives depend on dialysis and whose families are suffering the financial constraints of a chronically sick child.
Holidays for these children are not a luxury, they are a must if they are going to have the strength and courage to face whatever the rest of the year will bring.
Your trading stamps, petrol coupons, used postage stamps and of course, cash are much needed and will be gratefully received.
