Thank you all for reading the blog. I am sure you will want to join me in thanking Jenny Winter for all her hard work in putting the blog together. When you were all leaving the warehouse to go home for a hard earned rest (or to wash soft toys, or wrap shoeboxes, or buy soap!), Jenny was rushing home to write the blog. She was greatly encouraged by all your feedback.
People read the blog from 13 countries around the world. Not surprisingly the vast majority were from the United Kingdom. However we also had readers from USA, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Ireland, China, Philippines, Denmark, Sweden, Isle of Man and Australia.
Most entered using their computer, but 10% used their iPads and 10% used their phones. Most came via the blogspot address, but we also had a lot of people finding us on Facebook and the Samaritan's Purse web-site.
....and, more importantly, our final number of shoeboxes sent from the GU postcode area was 14,751, that's 14,751 happy children.
The number was nearly 10% down on last year when our final total was 16,326, and was similar to reductions elsewhere in the country.
