Spectacular start in September

So, after our 'quiet' summer (see previous post!) we have made a great start in September, with two events.

On 14 September we attended the Siemens Fun Day.  We got to use Gertie gazebo for the first time!  We sold cakes, pick and mix sweets, temporary tattoos and had free bracelet making and daffodil making.
Despite the drizzle of the day, people were not put off, and in fact were glad to stand under Gertie to keep dry.  We raised £138.  Thanks to our helpers that day, it was a great team effort.




The following Saturday we were at Asda, Farnborough.  We had been invited to hold a bag packing day there after we won their Community Life (green tokens) scheme earlier in the year. 

With loads of support from our children (sorry, young people), supporters and friends, we had a hugely successful day and raised £727 in six hours.

Our next event will be the return of Family Spookfest on Sunday 27 October, 4-7pm at Pine Ridge Golf Course.

Thank you everyone - just look at all those happy faces! ♥
