The Big Letter Write
October is the month of our Big Letter Write Campaign, where we encourage as many people as possible to put pen to paper for us, as part our Donate A Letter programme.
This year we’ve seen a 25% increase in demand for our letters. Whilst we celebrate reaching and supporting more people facing cancer (nothing makes us happier), there is a very real fear that we might not be able to reach this need without more people donating letters to us.
Are you able to help us?
Would you like to write for us?
Are you registered for our Donate A Letter programme, but haven’t yet taken the plunge?
Do you already write, but want to do more?
Whichever box you tick, we’d love your help. For the month of October (and beyond, if you like!), please take a moment to pop a letter or card in the post for us - or several if you really want to make us smile.
Getting inspired
There’s plenty of inspiration on our social media channels and our blog and we’ve put together writing prompts for every day of October (image above - ‘Notes from October’).
We are also running two FREE online letter writing inspiration sessions with our Co-founder, Alison;
Although these sessions are completely FREE, you will need to book a ticket in advance via Eventbrite - click on the links above.
THANK YOU!
On behalf of everyone who will benefit from your letter(s), a huge heartfelt THANK YOU. We don’t know what kind of day / week the recipient is having when they receive our letters, but what we do know is that your letters offer a welcomed distraction, a glimmer of hope and spread a little bit of joy in to their world.
All letters can be sent to our PO Box address;
Donate A Letter, PO Box 6033, Ascot SL5 5FH.
Any stamp donations welcomed with the letters (please do not stick them on an internal envelope).
And lastly….Happy writing!
