Thank you – you’ve boosted our Helping Hand Appeal past the million pound mark! And what a celebration we had…
We’d blown up the balloons, chilled the prosecco and ordered the cake. All we needed now were our colleagues, former colleagues, invited guests and the winners of our Meet The Team competition to help celebrate our wonderful news. My Weekly readers had reached the £1 million landmark!
We welcomed our guests with a glass of fizz and showed them a small exhibition of some of the wonderful things the Helping Hand Appeal has achieved over the years, then we cut our cake (you can’t have a My Weekly party without cake).
We’d also erected a beautiful illuminated tree and hung pictures of some of the children who are receiving help from Mary’s Meals with inspiring quotes about the difference it’s making to their lives.
We heard from Harrison Watson, former editor of My Weekly and the person responsible for launching the very first Helping Hand Appeal, to cheer children in Romanian orphanages.
