Halloween Fayre and Open Day!!!

Hello!!! Sorry for the huge gap - we are so busy over at Loving Hands website and forum ( www,lovinghands.org.uk - forum link is at top right hand corner of the web page) the forum us incredibly busy now with new members joining every day - over 1200 on the forum now and we have over 2600 members in total - it is wonderful!!!

This year has seen LH HQ redecorated and sorted out with shelving etc and we have built a new storage shed out back (now officially known as 'Gaffers Den' ) so we have more room for all the items coming and going through here now ;0)

Soooooo - To service this ever growing community we are having a fundraiser at the end of October ;0)

Loving Hands arfe having their first ever - HALLOWEEN FAYRE - it is perfect timing for Halloween and will beat all the other Christmas Fayres to the punch ;0) We will have lots of stalls and invite some other people in to do stalls to sell things people will maybe want for Christmas presents as well.

There will be the usual Raffle, Tombola, Cake and Candy, Handicrafts, Teas etc and we will have fun things for the kids too - a fancy dress contest, a best carved pumpkin contest, bran tub (with scary things in it so they have to feel past the spiders, skeletons, bats etc to find the parcels ;0) etc, etc.

Hopefully it will be a really fiun day and we will raise lots of money for Loving Hands - I want to get in loads of inks, stationery, stamps etc to keep us going for the next wee while ;0)

so that is;-
