Christmas Card writing night

Bring some cards along and get creative with us


Location
One Strawberry Lane

Date and time
18:15 - 20:00
Monday, 2nd of December 2024


Let's make a difference to some older people in our community this Christmas.

Join us at One Strawberry Lane where the lights will be on, the heating will be cranked up and there may be mince pies on offer! For this session we are meeting to write (or make!) Christmas cards for local residential homes. Just think- this might be the only card an isolated older person might receive this Chistmas.

For this session, we are asking you to bring along a pack or two of Christmas cards that we'd love you to buy from a charity shop or card shop that offers charity cards- Scribbler, Clintons and many supermarkets have this option. If you want to bring materials along and get creative, that's obviously ok too! After the session, we will mix the cards up and you will take a set away to deliver to a local residential home of your choice.

This session will finish with an optional fitness session for those wishing to take part.
