Today, on 11 November, 2023, I am in Latvia. Together with the people of Latvia, I celebrate Lāčplēša Day. We light candles in memory of those who gave their lives so that we can live in democratic freedom today.

The red and white flag of the Republic of Latvia flies high and proud.

As the world, once again, swings between good and evil, between peace and war and between light and darkness, I have received absolutely heartening news from Guernsey. Today, on such an important day of Armistice, the Newborn Baby Hats Appeal has received its 25,000th donation! 

This magnificent achievement helps to give confidence in the ultimate victory of good over evil, peace over war and light over darkness! The 25,000th donation is a clear proof of the tidal wave of loving kindness of the people of Guernsey. On behalf of the entire Newborn Baby Hats Appeal organising team, I express my deepest gratitude to every donor and supporter. 

With all of the terrible atrocities in this world, if we can bring a smile to the face of a parent or child receiving the donations sent from Guernsey, we together have made a difference.  A big THANK YOU to all involved.

I also express the greatest gratitude to DHL, who tirelessly deliver all donations to Ukraine and Latvia in so timely a manner.

Together we can do so much!
