  Helen and Douglas House
November 2007
 

Christmas is coming!

Whether it’s Christmas cards, gift wrap, advent calendars, decorations or gifts, the Helen & Douglas House Shop in Market Place, Wantage has plenty of ideas on offer.

You can be sure that whatever you buy will help us to continue providing the one to one care that is so crucial to the children and young adults with life-shortening conditions who stay with us in Oxford. 

 

 

Something a bit alternative

You can also order these goods, as well as our ‘alternative gifts’, via our website.  What’s an alternative gift?  Well, here at Helen & Douglas House we are often asked what we most need to help us in our work. In response we have put together a list of items that mean the most to the children, young adults and families whom we support.  Whether you choose to buy a session in the spa pool or a week’s meals you can be sure your gift will make a real difference.  As you will be buying the gift as a present for someone else we will make sure that they receive a certificate and one of our very useful trolley key rings. For more information go to www.helenanddouglas.org.uk/shopping  or call 01865 799150.

 

Join the Santa Fun Run!

 

Sunday 2nd December 2007

Oxford's first ever Helen & Douglas House Santa Fun Run is in association with Fox FM and their charity Help an Oxfordshire Child.

It's only two miles around Oxford and University Parks and will certainly get you in the festive spirit. We will provide you with your very own Santa suit. All proceeds will be shared between Helen & Douglas House and Fox FM's Help An Oxfordshire Child. To find out more go to www.helenanddouglas.org.uk/running or www.foxfm.co.uk/charity or call Fiona on 01865 794749.

Go on, do your bit this Christmas!
