All proceeds from the bauble donations will go to [Action for Children](http://www.actionforchildren.org.uk/) services across the country. Action for Children ambassador Anthea Turner launched the campaign at House of Fraser’s flagship Oxford Street store on 6 November. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert. You create the campaign.
