It’s often easy to forget that, as a writer, I work with words every day and find communicating my thoughts and feelings to others a very simple affair – but that’s not the case for everyone.  Some people struggle to make themselves understood.

So, I was delighted to discover a wonderful website that allows you to adopt a word for a year at a time and I used it to adopt the word SCREAM.

Adopt A Word charges just £20 to make a word ‘yours’ for 12 months – with all the money going to a brilliant charity called I Can which helps children with communication and speech problems.

So, if there’s a word you’ve always coveted, why not give it a good home?  Because words are for life – not just for Christmas cracker jokes…
