A BIG shout out to Chris of Getting Clean doing the this weekend at City Square in
He's bonkers but for a good reason. He's aiming (& he'll do it) to raise £50.000 to help recovering addicts in the city.
Chris himself is in recovery & he has turned his story into something soooo positive you can't help but want to support him.

If you are in Leeds this weekend please, please go see Chris & support him. It'll cost you as little as £5 for a bar of soap 🧼 to go towards him raising £50.000

You can also sponsor a box of necessities for prison leavers if you're a business or even a just you as a person for £60 to help steer them onto the right path at this vunerable time.

If you don't do anything else please share his posts, tag people, businesses, like & follow & encourage him 🩵🩵

What a fabulously busy hook up this morning!! All the ladies were making for our charities at a rate of knots, the sewing room was busy too making drain bags for Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust

We had a visit from Branches Bereavement Support CIC ❤️
We make a few things for their GRIEF CASES & they brought one along to show us.

What an absolutely amazing resource this is, honestly if you haven't heard of them you really MUST look them up! Their work is outstanding & I can't believe the price of these boxes either - for all the hours of work & putting together this really is an excellent price.

Schools, children's services, ANYONE can benefit from their grief cases & the knowledge these ladies have.

Why not sponsor one? It's such a valuable resource 💖
