Great Heights Sponsored Walk & Jigsaws

Just before the summer GreatHeights completed their walk and started selling jigsaws to raise £1000 for PresentAid. We have raised somewhere in the region of £775 so far although not all sponsor money is in. If you sponsored us can you please let us have your donation? If you would like to donate then see any member of GreatHeights. Also we still have around a dozen Banner jigsaws for sale, £12 each with £5 directly to the fundraising effort. If we collect all our sponsorship and sell out of jigsaws we'll raise the money needed easily....please help! Thanks. Phil Sarbutts

Make up for Millie

It's his Mum!) has agreed to donate her commission from any resulting sales to "Miles for Millie", an offshoot of the charity "Millie's Trust". This charity was set up by Joanne and Dan Thompson to raise awareness of paediatric first aid after their daughter died in a choking incident at nursery.

To find out more see "Milliestrust.com."

It should be a fun morning, and will start a 10.00am for 10.30.
