Kind of Christmas

As hard as covid tries it can’t cancel Christmas. As we cautiously consider friends and family we hope to see. 
Here we share a gift ideas that won’t be thrown away or sit at the back of a cupboard. Adopt an animal or donate to a charity for a loved one; gifting a better world is pretty hard to beat.
