The Guide Dogs Christmas Fair is tomorrow.

Join us this Sunday 1 December, from 11am until 2pm. There will be so much to enjoy, with craft stalls, tombolas, games and raffles, as well as a choir singing carols.

There will also be plenty of food and drink to purchase. It's a Christmas event not to be missed!

🗓️ Sunday 1 December from 11am until 2pm
📍 Guide Dogs North West Regional Centre, Gibfield Park Avenue, Atherton, M46 0SU
☃️ No need to book, just turn up - it's a free event. See you there!

If you can't attend, perhaps I can interest you in my Christmas Raffle. The prizes this year are:

LARGE crocheted Christmas Reindeer. This is a decoration rather than a toy as it contains many small parts.

Crocheted Santa.

A jar of my friends award winning honey along with a crocheted bee.

A bottle of 'light up' Clementine Gin.

It's 50p a go, please contribute via my Just Giving page. Prizes will be drawn at the end of the Fair tomorrow and I'll post who the winners are. Thank you xx https://www.justgiving.com/page/joanne-drinkwater-1728628608558

I know a lot of people donate to charity rather than send Christmas cards these days. If you would consider donating to my Guide Dogs fund this year, I'd be very grateful xx

Good morning. I have exciting news!! I have reached my target to Call a Guide Dog Arthur and have just completed the forms to start the process!! I am thrilled and I know dad would be too 🥰.

So....I am now continuing with my fundraising to Call a Guide Dog Pat, after my mum.

I'm finishing off a number of items which I'll share on here. I'll be having a stall at the Guide Dogs Christmas Fair again, along with our very popular tombola. I'll post details nearer the time.

If anyone would like to donate any unwanted gifts to our tombola, they would be very gratefully received.

Can I say a HUGE thank you to everyone who supports me, by donating to my Just Giving page, buying my hand-crafted items, donating prizes, helping with my fundraising and helping out at any events. Your support means the world to me.
