I read it in the paper so it must be true july26

Hugo Rifkind’s People column in today’s London Times had this story:

The designer Cath Kidston is working with the charity Shelter on its new campaign to combat child homelessness. Call us cynical, but we’re not sure the 130,000 British children without homes will find much use for her tie-in creation. It’s a keyring.

I read it in the newspaper so it must be true.

I’d love to see a picture of the keyring so, if anyone knows a link, can you send it to me.

Edit: I’ve added ‘july26 to the title to avoid confusion with a similarly titled post on Aug 22. I’ve also added ‘newspapers‘ as a tag/category for easier searching in the future.

    Does seem a little futile. Some people need to be seen being charitable. eeuuw.

    Hi there

    I saw your blog about the Cath kidston keyring she has designed for SHELTER – if you go to this link http://www.raisetheroof.org.uk you will find all the info on this funky keyring. It would be great if you could post details to all the other people that read your blog and encourage them to buy this great keyring to help end child homelessness.

    Thanks
    Vicky
