| | |  Signed Deathly Hallows to aid Special Needs trip to Florida
The South Wales Evening post has a story about the Special Needs Activity Club in Port Talbot, Wales, where organisers are hoping to send families to Florida for a holiday. They hope a signed copy of Deathly Hallows will help raise funds. Plans to send the group swimming with dolphins started three years ago, but have since come up against unexpected costs. Most of the families have never been to Florida, with some having never left Wales. Quote:
One of the mums met JK Rowling and got her to sign a copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, then donated it to the appeal.
"We are planning an auction for the book in a few months' time," said Dawn.
"But if someone wants to put in a nice big bid in advance, we would love to hear from them."

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

I do think that that signed copy of DH would bring a lot of money. And of course, once again, HP saves the people! | |

I do admire Jo so much for this! She is a most amazing woman!
This type of cause is so close to my heart as I'm a childcare worker and it's what I love doing. To see those kids smile is like nothing else! It is a feeling which makes it all worth while. Children with Additional Needs rarely see this kind of attention in their happiness, and neither have their parents. So this really does make my eyes well up a bit! It's so amazing! Here's to all the money possible for those kids!
