This win didn't come via this Forum (I don't think) but I am thrilled to bits to win this Twitter competition through #NovusSolutions who were looking for nominations for their #changinglives competition. I nominated #caringforkian.

Little Kian was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in October 2013 when he was only 18 months old. Novus kindly donated £150 to his cause.

Thanks to all those who post competitions! Comping on and off since 2009
Nothing is so contagious as enthusiasm
