Copying a wonderful idea!
« on: March 09, 2017, 06:27:38 PM »
You may remember that in the September 2016 edition of Revolutions, members of the Wessex club made some wig stands for their local Hospice.
We copied the idea in its entirety, and asked members to make just one wig stand each, well some did, some made two and one member made 10. In the end we got 34 brought in to the February  club night! This was too many for the Hospice so they shared them with the hospital. The patients in need of one will be asked to make a donation to the respective hospital/Hospice.


The photo shows the Hospice staff, Vic our chairman, me and David a committee member, all the ladies worked for the Hospice or the hospital.
Thanks to the Wessex club for the idea and to the members for their response
Ron

Well done to all of your members that took part, and glad it is raising some money
