I have selected the NSPCC because it is a soft spot for me, and also as it reminds me so much of home and of those less able to protect themselves.

I have teamed up with the NSPCC to make all of this happen by Christmas, however if I am unable to bring 1 Million Londoners together and reach my objective by Christmas, I am going to continue this venture UNTIL I DO, and am able to present a cheque to the NSPCC to help make a real difference to children who suffer cruelty. When I accomplish this, it will not only be down to me, but to each and every one of you that contributed and helped make it happen.

If you also wish to donate directly to the charity, please click here and it will take you to the NSPCC website. Alternatively,  please call our friend from the NSPCC, Steve Hughes, on 07779 009905 or email him at shughes1@nspcc.org.uk and he will be more than happy to tell you how you can help to put a smile on a child’s face this Christmas

 

 

About the 

The London Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children was founded in 1884 and changed its name to The National Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) in 1889.

Its aim then was to protect children from cruelty, to support vulnerable families, to campaign for changes to the law and to raise awareness about abuse.

The Society today may look very different, but its purpose remains the same: to end cruelty to children.

The NSPCC's work

The NSPCC has 177 community-based projects and runs the Child Protection Helpline and ChildLine in UK and the Channel Islands.
Services include the 24-hour Child Protection Helpline, Childline, There4me.com, Young Witness Support, Quality Parenting and Family Support list links to Teams and services and many more.
Most of our work is with children, young people and their families. We also seek to achieve cultural, social and political change - influencing legislation, policy, practice, attitudes and behaviours and delivering services for the benefit of young people.

Our aim

The NSPCC exists to end cruelty to children. We want to see a society where all children are loved, valued and able to fulfil their potential. To do this, the NSPCC has four objectives, which are:

• To mobilise everyone to take action to end child cruelty.
• To give children the help, support and environment they need to stay safe from cruelty.
• To find ways of working with communities to keep children safe from cruelty.
• To be, and be seen as, someone to turn to for children and young people.
