This year (on 3rd March), Miranda Richardson will turn 50 years of age. To celebrate this, and to show her how many admirers appreciate her work and talent, the Miranda forum group has organised to send her a 50th Birthday present. This will take the form of a donation in her name to an organisation she has long supported - the WSPA. Anyone can add their own donation to the collection, however large or small, and leave a personal birthday message for Miranda. A website has been set up via an independent charity collection site.

As an example of her support of this organisation, in December, Miranda travelled to Sri Lanka on behalf of the WSPA to learn more about stray dog population control projects in Colombo. You can watch a video about her trip here.

In May she accompanied them to the International Whaling Commission meetings in Alaska to promote the anti-whaling message. Click here for more information from WSPA, and here for Miranda's endorsement of a current campaign.

This has been more or less ganked wholesale from the front page of the Miranda Richardson Apprecitaion Page, because Clive is much better at writing this sort of concise message than I am. More personally, I've been organising this with him since the end of last year. I set up the donation website, and with his Webmastery Powers of Awesome, he has been in contact with a lovely lady at the WSPCA, who is thrilled with the idea and has done everything she can to help us. According to her, the WSPCA's 'celebrity' co-ordinator has been in touch with Miranda's agent, and the collection has been explained to Miranda who is apparently very touched by it.

So please help us make the pile larger, and wish Miranda a very happy birthday :D
