A request from John

Many of you have given John gifts over the years, and although he appreciates your thoughtfulness, he's running out of space to keep them! Rather than buying him a gift, he would ask you to support one of his chosen charities.

All donations, large or small, will help these wonderful organisations.

A reminder about Facebook and online chats. They're not John!

Please don't be fooled by fake accounts pretending to be John. If someone on Facebook, or online chats, tells you they are John, they are lying to you. John does not currenly have a personal page on Facebook and he does not engage in online chats with fans. John does use Twitter and he replies to some of the tweets from his fans when he's able to. He also now has an Instagram account.
