charity
ive been thinking a lot recently about doing something for charity (cancer care) mum died of cancer 16 years ago and i feel i need to do something to at least partly help with there funds, i dont know what yet, or how, but does anyone fancy doing something not too strenuos (sp) with me for a cancer charity?
does anyone know if park lee hospice is still open? i'd like to do something for that if it is, mum spent some of her last days there AND BEFORE I GET THE SNIPES FROM NEIL....no i aint going soft

Re: charity
How about organising a Bring and Buy? Or is that too ambitious? Last time I did one we had a free venue because it was at the old folks home we were raising money for. My late MIL spent her last days is Park Lee and I wouldn't mind being involved too as long as it's not on a Sunday.

Re: charity
cheers Lesley, ok all we need now is a venue, maybe for a saturday so willow can make it, we could even have a jumble sale, you dont see many of those nowadays, i'm sure we could all collect some things between us...seen as most of you are from the Accy area i think that would be a great place to have it

Re: charity
My husband Len was in the Hospice in July for the week before his death - peaceful atmosphere and wonderful nursing staff - we asked for donations instead of floral tributes and had a bucket collection at Accy Stanley and raised hundreds of pounds for the Hospice and McMillan nurses.

Re: charity
OK, so anybody got any ideas for a venue?
Oh, and it needs to be well publicised but if it's for charity a lot of shops let you put little posters (A4) in their windows.
