Hometown Glory – Part Four: Help a London Child

30
Dec 2011

Ahoy there! (Yeah, I watched ‘Hook’ over the holidays :-P ) – It’s been a minute since part three of the Hometown Glory series, so I’m excited to share this one with you!

So let me guess, you’ve eaten ridiculous amounts of your favourite sugary and salty (but oh so delicious) food, you’ve slept in late enough each day that getting dressed seemed pointless, you’ve watched your entire movie collection, you’ve grumbled at the stupid story-line Eastenders went with on Christmas day (what a letdown…), and you’ve abandoned any thoughts of going back to work in the real world…You’ve enjoyed your holiday and are now prepping for the New Year with resolutions you wont be keeping. Fantastic, you successfully enjoyed the season in all its commercialised glory! :-D

However the same isn’t true of others over the world and we all know this. As you may already know, these ‘Hometown Glory’ posts refer to my Hometown; Hammersmith – Today though, I’ve decided to extend as far as the whole capital…I first heard about this particular ‘text to donate’  service  relating to Helping Children in London a few weeks ago on LBC during an ad-break and I’m really glad I did. These charities provide support for young people in the UK who need it the most!

From young carers who sacrifice large amounts of their time to care for those in their families suffering with an illness or a disability, to homeless youths who have no shelter and so have no choice but to live on the streets – There is a lot of help to give! - Donate today by texting the word CARER to 70100 & send a one-off amount of £5 to help make a difference to someone’s life. ♡ (Network rates as seen on LBC below)

If  you didn’t already know, I’m proud to declare that I’m from Hammersmith, London :-D ) If you know the place, you may have seen some of its beautiful architecture already (& yes, of course I’m biased…), Today, I wanted to really open your eyes & share with you just some of what we Hammersmith-ians have to offer, in pictures – so here you go:

Hammersmith Tube Sign
St Paul's Church
The Lyric Theatre
Hammersmith Kings Mall Shopping Centre
Thames Path

So, what do you think? When I look at these, they feel like ‘home’ :-) Be sure to look out for part two of this post, which will bring you more snippets & trivia about Hammersmith. Until then, love. ❤ xX

Bellissimo!

So me & a close friend went out to one of my favourite places in London to eat the other day & I devoured this plate in a matter of minutes! Italian food is one of my favourite things in the world to eat & Bella Italia never gets it wrong! Don’t judge me, but I had to take a picture! YUM-YUM! :-D
