<p>I am proud to be associated with a fantastic charity called Contact The Elderly. We organise local tea parties one Sunday a month&nbsp;with the help of an army of volunteer drivers &amp; volunteer hosts. The tea parties provide a vital lifeline to isolated &amp; lonely elderly people, just like Iris &amp; Vera, especially in these times of public sector cuts.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep, donate now and support us in reaching more isolated &amp; lonely elderly people in Britain.</p>
