Have a merry Mencap Christmas!

Thursday 04 October 2007

Mencap's Christmas catalogue is out now and filled with fantastic and unique gift ideas for all your family and friends!

The catalogue is also filled with all the Christmas essentials - Christmas cards, including some designed by children and adults with a learning disability, gift-wrap and Christmas crackers. Money raised will enable Mencap to continue to support people with a learning disability.

For those creative types, there is a range of ‘design your own' products, such as a t-shirt, a piggy bank (£9.99) and porcelain mug. There's also a fantastic range of gifts you can personalise for that extra special touch.

Gifts for girls - Simply fabulous quilted hangers, the Ultimate Girls' Night In book, a ‘bling' ring key-ring (£3.99) and chocolate-scented candles for the chocoholic in your family.

Gifts for boys - Is the man in your life a danger when in the kitchen? Then be prepared by giving him the Extreme Cooking Kit (£12.99). Also available are gadgets for the car and a powerful, handheld vacuum for cleaning his PC computer.

Get yourself and others organised for the year ahead with Mencap's Snap! 2008 calendar. The calendar highlights the artistic talents of people with a learning disability and gives an insight into learning disability through moving and uplifting photographs and stories.

Mencap is the UK learning disability charity supporting people with a learning disability and their families and carers throughout their lives. Mencap fights for equal rights, campaigns for greater opportunities and challenges attitudes and prejudice.
