In December 2017, Ann celebrated her Thanksgiving for her life, breaking the silence of a lifetime by including 6 of her poems. She was amazed at the reaction of so many who were touched by them, so she embarked on producing a booklet in the two-fold hope of reaching hearts and opening wallets for Africa. 

At the moment the European Union triples all donations to Christian Aid (yes!). The two thousand pounds given in December became SIX thousand.

Ann longs to raise this amount again in the months remaining to her.
