Let's make Winnie's 100th extra special!

[BlueAlien86 10]

Has anybody seen the post of BBC Radio Sheffield's Facebook page??

 

There is a lady called Winnie who is turning 100 at the end of this month.

 

A true Sheffield Lass, she has no family and only her carers for companionship.

 

I am trying to raise £100 to give to Winnie as a gift.

I have also sent a card.

 

Would you like to be involved in making this lady's 100th birthday special??

 

You can send a card to:

BBC Radio Sheffield, 54 Shoreham Street, Sheffield, S1 4RS.

 

Check out the post on Facebook: BBC RADIO SHEFFIELD

 

Or donate on my GO FUND ME page:

Let's try and make her day extra special!

 

Thank you!

Just a quick one - I once tried to donate a quid on a Go Fund Me page and it said the minimum allowed is £5. Is that something you can change in the settings?

 

If not, nobody will be able to donate a quid.

Ah... Just checked... Your right!!!

Will correct this!

 

Thank you!

I don't believe that there is currently a donation (other than mine) that has been set up.

I know they have asked for people to post cards.....

I have no personal connection to Winnie.

I am simply trying to do a good deed for a lady who has no family and to show that Sheffield is a kind and caring place!!

Why does she need to have a connection to her?

Well done that's a lovely thing to do for anyone, but especially for someone born during ww1.
