In case you have any cash left after the seasonal spending spree, the millions of people affected by the recent typhoon in the Philippines could still do with help, and if you can’t decide which charity to donate to, the Disasters Emergency Committee can take the stress out of choosing – see http://www.dec.org.uk/appeals/philippines-typhoon-appeal – and there are plenty more disasters on their website than need aid too.
