I agree with parkinsons.org & cancer research.
These charities both mean a lot to my family.
Unfortuantly my nan passed away way before I was born due to cancer, my grandad then became depressed and drunk excessively.
He now has a form of parkinsons aswell as dementia, and the doctors believe this is from the drink and depession.

Also something to do with mental health/eating disorders, but I like the idea of the toys for children in hospitals, that would really make a childs christmas.

Toys for kids in hospitals is a really cool idea.

I have two suggestions, please choose one of these. Very close to my heart both of these charities.

Medicinema

MediCinema improves the difficult reality of being in hospital or places of care for patients and their families by bringing them genuine movie-going experiences to make them feel better.
By creating a true cinema experience MediCinema aims to enrich the lives of patients, many of whom are critically ill or disabled and spend extensive periods of time in hospital or undergoing treatment.
We do this by installing and managing permanent state-of-the-art cinemas in hospitals and places of care which show the latest releases the film industry has to offer.
Our cinemas are built to comfortably accommodate hospital beds and wheelchairs whilst maintaining a real and immersive cinema experience.
The therapeutic effects provided by the opportunity to enjoy an immersive and uplifting social experience with family and friends in a medical environment have proved remarkable. By bringing them a genuine cinema experience we make them feel better, provide relief from the wards and some precious normality.

Kidney Kids Scotland

Kidney Kids Scotland was founded as a Charitable Trust in July 2000 to help children with renal illness and their families.
Families continue to be a priority for the Charity ensuring they are supported when they most need it. These families come from ALL over Scotland.
Kidney Kids Scotland supports hospitals all over Scotland supplying them with much needed equipment and funding for posts recognised as being essential. We achieve this by working closely and relying on the expertise of Consultants, Medical and Welfare personnel to identify where the Charity can best provide help.
Kidney Kids Scotland has been instrumental in funding and developing The Paediatric Renal Network in Scotland. www.sprun.scot.nhs.uk/

Over the past twelve years Kidney Kids Scotland has distributed over a million pounds towards the treatment of children in Scotland suffering from renal/ urology problems.
