Most important thing is that they are filled with love
Little tips about sending someone love in an envelope this year...
- Make sure your card is filled with love.
- Make it as creative as you can.
- Ensure it has a legible message (if a child’s words are illegible, please write in brackets underneath).
- Keep your envelope unsealed to give the rest homes discretion to check cards if they choose.
- You could start the card with "dear friend" or "to someone special"
- Try to avoid religious quotes - your recipient may not be religious
Just be you!
Deadline for cards 8th December.

Please spread the word, tell your family and friends!!
