Just donated. Always try to give to animal charities. They are doing a great job. Donation come up as anonymous - don't know why. Still it does not matter so long as it is done.
Perhaps each to their own, diz - I didn't see your original post, but I sponsor my nephew when he does his sponsored bike rides, recently did Milton Keynes to Paris for charity. We can't all sponsor everything, but yours is a worthy local cause.
