I would like to look at providing activity clubs for children.....healthy activities(sport,dancing etc)
I would like to look at providing days out and short holiday breaks for the elderly, disabled and families on low incomes......nothing like a trip to Disney....but trips to the
seaside in this country.
I would look at improving the home environments of the elderly and disadvantaged......enlisting local businesses in decorating and repairing homes......making them more comfortable to live in(this would also put money into the local economy)
I'm pretty sure that all of these things would lighten the lives of folks who could do with some help in their lives.....I'm also fairly sure that half a milllion would'nt be enough to do all of these things.......and would be prepared to donate the more of the money to these worthy causes.
