Thats my caveat to the rest of the article. The charity raises its money through a night long ...  Read the complete review

Children In Need is an annual event that comes around far too quickly for my liking. The basic concept of the show is an evening of 'entertainment' interspersed with appeals for money. Throughout the day children will have mufti days at school and shave their heads all in the name of charity. I'm sure Children in Need does a huge amount ...  Read the complete review

I'm more of a Dooyooer than a 'dogooder' but I do try & do my bit each mid November when the Children in Need Appeal is at it's climax.
