For the second year running Sandpits Road residents rallied together for a community Table Top Sale and to raise funds for charity. This year we are delighted to say that we raised (with a last minute contribution) an amazing £406.80 for Demelza Hospice Care for Children. The event was well supported by residents and locals alike, thanks are due to our presence in the SPAN newsletter, and the tireless volunteers who leafleted the local area, put up signage and posters in their windows & gardens. The Shirley Friends of Demelza also had a stall and everyone was so thrilled with the event that we are already talking about next year! And we couldn’t have been more blessed with the weather, despite the ominous forecast earlier in the week!!
Attached is a certificate presented to residents with the initial amount (Drew’s work colleagues polished off the remainder of the cupcakes he baked the next day and a further £15 was raised!!) and some pictures from the day
Here’s to the third Sunday in May 2016!
Thanks for all your support
