How fantastic to be lucky enough to have a gang of extra volunteers for the day on 26th May! We are so grateful to our five lovely helpers from Sotheby's, who donated a day of their time to get some of our long outstanding jobs out of the way, and to shift some of our never ending fabric and bottle-top mountains. Thank you Kathyrn, Tamara, Eleanor, Premi and Thymmie for your support. You would be welcome back any time! Hope you had fun with us. If you'd like to organise a day's voluntary for your company, do get in touch!
