With the sale of Dolly’s House, Charlotte was able to start the real reason behind the Give it Away project – providing much needed support for the Charities she is working with, who rely on donated funds. In the week of 13th November, £200,000 was distributed amongst them, enabling money to be spent on wheelchairs, alternative support therapies in a teenage oncology unit through Yes 2 Life, income support to maintain and increase the sessions available at Small Steps pre-school, money to invest in teenage support activities be it counselling, residential care, education or mentors and money to help fund a sports centre for children who are blind or partially sighted, in Tooting. Shooting Stars Hospice for Children will also be able to pay for something on their “wish” list.

Charlotte said: “to go from this: will we ever finish!!?
