Blue Cross - Lady and her six puppies are very happy and healthy dogs that all now live in loving homes. The sad thing is that Lady was very nearly put to sleep. If she had not been rescued by The Blue Cross, Lady, like thousands of dogs across the UK, would almost certainly not be here today… Lady and her pups are just seven amongst more than 6000 unwanted, stray and abandoned animals that are taken in by The Blue Cross each year. This Christmas thousands of animlas lives will be at risk - The Blue Cross is working harder than ever before to find and rescue stray and unwanted pets that would otherwise be put down. In 2007 The Blue Cross expects to take in 400 dogs from other organisations that simply do not have the resources, or the facilities to care for the number of animals that come through their doors.

Children In Crisis - there are 77 million children worldwide who are not able to go to school. Often they are living in severe poverty and can not afford to go to school and many are the innocent victims of civil wars and conflicts. Schools are often destroyed during wars and with few if any trained teachers, there’s no chance for these children to learn the skills they need to find a way out of poverty. Children in Crisis is working towards ending this injustice by providing an education to children in 9 countries around the world. Our aim is that all children will have the chance to go to school, wherever in the world they are and however poor they might be. Children will always be the most vulnerable members of society; in times of an economic crisis, a political upheaval or a war, they will be the ones who suffer the most. A chance to go to school can provide a safe and secure environment in which to learn and rebuild their lives.
