MAY I ask readers going on holiday here and abroad to add another postcard to their list and send it to Dr Hadwen Trust Postcard/Stamp Appeal, c/o 18, Fletton Ave, Peterborough, PE2 8AU.
These will be auctioned to raise funds for research into cancer, diabetes, heart disease, meningitis, Alzheimers etc. Also needed are foreign stamps, preferably still on the envelope, first day covers, British stamps, phone cards, old and foreign currency, clear postmarks, jewellery and watches, including broken, and of course picture postcards.
Anyone wanting to know more about this vital work that relates directly to humans and is safer, cheaper and more reliable than animal research, should wire to the Dr Hadwen Trust for Humane Research, 84A Tilehouse Street, Hitchin, Herts. Donations are also urgently needed.
Please take the time to send a postcard and make this appeal a big success. Thank you.
Ms Dorothy Benton, Peterborough.
