NSPCC book exchange now running in Halls Green

 

As many of you will already know, each November we hold a charity open day. This is a fantastic day of fun and jewellery. You can come along, bring friends, and enjoy a glass of mulled wine or winter pimms with us and speak with the designers who will all be on hand for an informal chat about whatever you want! We can clean your jewellery whilst you wait and advise on any jewellery ideas. You can watch our talented craftsmen and women at work on their benches and have the opportunity to ask them questions about how things are done. There is also a big charity raffle with super prizes and also a very high chance of winning something.

Each year we also raise a substantial sum for charity. Last year we decided to raise money for the NSPCC. Then after the open day we got to thinking - what else could we do throughout the year to raise extra cash for this brilliant charity? As many of us enjoy reading and watching DVDs, we decided to start a book exchange corner in our studio all year round.

So when you come to our Halls Green studio now, you will notice a basket of books and films in the corner by the sofas. Please do have a good dig round and if you would like to keep anything you just donate £1 or £2 into the NSPCC box on the counter. This is going really well - the basket keeps filling up and emptying and the box is getting fuller!

Many thanks to everybody who is contributing to make this a success - and don't forget to bring your old novels with you when you come for your appointment to recycle!

Thanks

Harriet
