Give as you Live this Mother's Day.. 10 Gifts under £10 with a free charity donation.It’s almost Mother’s Day and I do tend to get a bit, err… Over emotional around this time (understatement). My two tiny babies came screaming into the world just a couple of weeks before Mother’s Day 2012 and since then, that Sunday in March has been so incredibly special to me.

Of course, I’ve always loved to give my own Mum a treat on that day but for so many years I thought I’d never experience it as a Mum myself. Since I have? I mainly spend the day in a slightly over emotional state wittering on about babies and gratitude and sob sob sob.

Give as you Live got in touch with me recently to tell me about their site and if you read my recent post about dementia, you’ll understand why it touched me so much. Give as you Live allows you to raise funds for a charity close to your heart, just by clicking through their site to shop direct with the retailers.

How does it work?

Pop over to Give as you Live and register an account (it’s really quick and simple). Then, each time you go to shop (Not on The High Street, John Lewis and Etsy are some of my favourites as you’ll see) go via the Give as You Live page.

A notice will pop up to say that your visit has been tracked and later on, after your order, you’ll receive an email to let you know how much your purchases have raised for charity – all at no cost to you.

You can also download the donation reminder extension for your browser if you’re using Chrome so that you never miss a chance to donate

 

My Picks for Mother’s Day

They asked me to choose some of my favourite picks for Mother’s Day via their site. Here’s what I ordered and I have raised money for Dementia UK just by ordering through Give as you Live.
