If anyone wants to send a card we are holding a collection for Amelia until Friday 30th January, just hand them in to reception, we will then get these over to the Wheatsheaf Pub, Margate and they are going to drop them to Gillingham.

If this could be shared so we can get it around so this little girl gets her wish of 8000 birthday cards. If these get sent to Wheatsheaf, Margate then we will send to the The Star, Gillingham.
