🥂 FINALLY… THE WAIT IS OVER! 💃🏼✨

Our next evening event is HERE, and this time it’s all about the ladies! 💗

After the amazing feedback from our last event, we had SO many messages from women saying they were in the same boat and would have loved to come along… so we thought, why not make one just for you?! 🥰

Don’t worry, gents… we haven’t forgotten about you! 😉 Your turn is coming, with another date planned for January! 👀

So, ladies, come along, learn a new skill, have a good old natter, enjoy a glass of bubbles 🥂 and have a laugh along the way!

Honestly… what more could you want? Hair, bubbles, good company AND supporting a brilliant cause! ❤️

💗 Even better… ALL money raised will be donated to charity!

Grab your girls, spread the word and come and join us for a fun, feel-good evening for a fantastic cause! 🥂✨

EDIT: We have today gratefully received a fabulous fabric donation. We are still on the lookout for sewing scissors, seam rippers (quick unpicks), solid fabric rulers, fabric markers & haberdashery items.

We were so excited to received some sewing machines from the lovely folks at Tools with a Mission to use at our coffee mornings for the women who use our services.
Today we have been having a play and teaching some basic skills.
We wondered whether anyone might have some spare fabric, sewing tools, supplies and thread that we could use? We are starting with small makes such as tote bags.
If anyone is able to assist, please pop an email to [email protected] many thanks!

We are back in Haverhill, after a summer break! The coffee mornings offer an opportunity to come together, over a coffee for an informal get together and optional crafting/creative sessions, this time we enjoyed some time painting words that we felt meant something to us.
The sessions also give you the opportunity to be supported by others who have been in a similar situation.
If you would like to join us, we'd love to see you at Stourview Wellbeing Centre, Crown Passage, High Street, Haverhill, CB9 8AG
