Hi Everyone, it's that time of year when the fat fella squeezes down the chimney again bringing with him presents of all shapes and sizes for children and adults alike to play with or wear. It’s a wonderful time for families to get close again, eat and drink too much and generally be silly. It is also a time of year when people fall ill and end up in hospital, Christmas doesn’t stop us being ill and therefore our help is still needed.
