Lend holiday home to a good cause

As our house is empty for many out-of-season weeks, I decided to give a week to charity.

AS OUR house is empty for many out-of-season weeks, I decided to give a week to charity.

A week was donated to an organisation that auctions for charity, and my favourite charity is better off by £550.

I’m so pleased, and thought perhaps other second home owners might be interested to know about this scheme.
