Macmillan Coffee Morning 28th September

Our group has decided to hold a coffee morning on Wednesday 28th September from 10.30am - 12 noon with all proceeds donated to Macmillan.  Group members are asked to bake some cakes (although you can fake the bake!) and bring them to group with you on 28th.  We will also be able to carry on with our craft activities.  Please spread the word to your family and friends.
Apologies for the lack of posts since we started back on 7th September.  As a result, this post is longer than normal.


Harriett will no longer be running our art/craft sessions as she has secured employment.  We will miss Harriet but wish her well in her new job. 

7th September

We were treated to a cooking demonstration from members of the Women's Institute.

As well as watching the demonstration, we had the chance to sample the finished products.  The group consensus was "delicious"!
 
Many thanks to Marryl and Frances from all of us.

Another demonstration this week from Marryl.  This time, Marryl showed us what we can make from recycled materials.  Here are a few of the things that can be made from things you find around the house.
 

 










 
 
All of the items above were made with things like toilet roll holders, magazine and book pages, empty deodorant bottles, cotton wool and even food packaging!  We all feel quite inspired now to experiment with what we find at home.
