Just wanted to say a big....

And a big smile to you all


We have now reached our fundraising target! Thanks to all who came to our events or sponsored us doing various challenges. We raised £624 at the auction of promises and over a whopping £1400 during slum survivor. As well as these events we have done a curry and film night, a quiz night, a coffee morning, stalls, face painting, a barn dance, sold countless things on Ebay, made a cook book, had collection boxes and some very generous donations! It's been a busy few months but it has helped us bond together as a team not to mention increased our faith. So once again thanks to all who have shown their support to us through finance and thanks to God who really does meet all out needs and then some! 
.... really no backing out now! 
Love the team xx

A weekend of fund raising

Keeping up with our fund-raising efforts, what better way to start a long bank holiday weekend then a morning of gardening. 
On Saturday morning a working party headed on down to broad oak park allotments to help Margaret and Peter salvage an overlooked allotment so it can be used. It was a back breaking few hours but great fun too! Here are some pictures of our efforts!

Hard at work!


A few mud fights later...

Time for a tea break!

Many thanks to Peter for his generous donation to our trip. We look forward to hearing about all the veggies Margaret has planned for her new plot!
