Amelie and her buddy Henry spent two very successful hours cleaning the beach at Loughshore Park today. It was great to see that the beach was fairly clean - mostly baby wipes and cotton bud plastic sticks. We also came upon a dead otter. Sad that it was dead but gives a little hope to seeing some exciting wildlife in Belfast Lough.
Amelie has met her fundraising target which is fantastic. A big thank you to Ger who stopped to chat and donated some money too! A big well done to Amelie and Henry for their hard work today 🙌🙌

My lovely daughter, Amelie, is doing a beach clean tomorrow at Loughshore Park to raise funds for Go Mad in Tanzania. Amelie is going to Tanzania in July to help build water systems and goat sheds. Go Mad in Tanzania has been working there for many years improving basic facilities for local people. We appreciate things are tight for everyone but if you could donate £1 that would be amazing! Or pop down on Saturday to say hello! Thank you 😊

We had a lovely lady in the shop this morning and she bought this book and a quantity of these yarns. We didn't notice that the card needed to go into the card reader so the payment hasn't been processed. Was this you? We would love it if you got in touch. Our shop mobile number is 07939439138 if you could give us a call. Any shares to help find this lady would be appreciated 😊

Look at this big hitter! Coming in with not just one but two magical knits in our Donegal Tweed ❤️ This is Lynsey from showing off her skills. She's got an eye for colour and clearly loves working with local yarn. Thank you for calling in - we really love seeing what magic you have created!
