Story

Over the past 4 or 5 years, my friend Neil and I have been volunteering for the charity Contact the Elderly - a network which organises tea parties for small groups of older people aged 75 and over who are dealing with loneliness and social isolation.

In that time, we've had the good fortune to meet and build a friendship with Christine. She's a legend! Here we are on the telly late in 2018.

She's 94 now and is really struggling with her mobility... and because she's housebound we sorted her out with an old iPad a few years ago (it was creaking back then) and she absolutely loves it. The only thing is, it's knackered now and the software on it can no longer be updated. We really want to sort her out with something more fit for purpose.

So if anyone fancies chucking in a few quid over the next week, that would be amazing! Then we'll make up the shortfall and get her a secondhand replacement ready to deliver over the next couple of weeks.

Thanks for any help - and we promise not to spend the money on gin.
