As far as I am aware, premature baby units are run entirely from charity and donations, so that would be a VERY worthy cause.

Beccy's best friend gave birth last Christmas to twins at 23 weeks (1lb 2oz and the other under 1lb). Sadly Lucy died within 45 minutes and Grace 10 weeks later. The NICU (Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit) staff are amazing and do a fantastic job despite (apparently) receiving no government funding. Which is why, when you go in there, each and every incubator is sponsored by companies or individuals and they are VERY short of resources.

One way to support premature babies is Bliss who are a charitable organisation focussed on premature birth.

Thats my opinion.

I think a Cancer charity would be appropriate as it can effect each and everyone on Passion ford and our family's.

Being honest im more likely to support something which can effect me personally.

I noticed people are still suggesting charities, so I'd like to suggest an Air Ambulance charity, as far as I'm aware there's no National Fund which distributes donations, so you would have to choose an area..

On the subject of content I personally think that just cars, (and in my opinion) not particularly the expected ones like FRS, EsCos, RS500.. But some more unusual ones. We can get girly calendars from a number of sources, but where else do we get to see some of the worlds finest hand-picked Fords? (Fast/Performance Ford I hear you say, but to be fair THEY choose them, not us.)

Just my 2 pennies. 8)
