Charity Christmas Cards

My Uncle had a favourite Christmas card which he used to put up year after year. It depicted a car driving up to a house in the semi-darkness, its headlights lighting up the beginnings of a snowstorm. Although modern, it was rather beautiful. Personally, I love charity Christmas cards - the more the merrier - tacky, religious, tasteful, or whatever.

Like my uncle, I put up my favourites every year and recycle the rest as gift tags for the following Christmas.

People who say ‘I’m not sending any Christmas cards this year but donating the money to charity’ are rather missing the point.

I certainly wouldn’t want to deter sending charity gifts but still send cards at Christmas - often it’s the only time of year you hear from old friends or distant members of the family.
