In lieu of receiving gifts or a pint from friends and family for my birthday this year, I would love if you could instead help me raise money to help support the work of Shelter Scotland.

Shelter Scotland helps over half a million people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. They campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to them for help. The bulk of Shelter Scotland's funding comes from donations made by individuals, organisations, charitable foundations and businesses.

Any bit helps, so if you can spare a couple of pounds to help out, that would be brilliant!
