Coffee Morning at Hirwaun Library on 11th March

Our Coffee Morning at Hirwaun Library was a great success and raised a total of £186.     We had a good turn out - there was a good selection of home made cakes and savouries as well as competitions. Winners were:  "Name the Teddy Bear" - Elizabeth Peters and "Guess the weight of the cake" - Irene Phillips (no it was not fixed - Anne James organised this event,  made the cake and weighed it!!!!)

Thanks to our good friend Margaret, the ladies at the Natty Knitting Group and customers at the Harrington  Hair Dressing Salon very kindly bought the surplus cakes raising a further £30.00.    The grand total raised was therefore £216.00..

Our grateful thanks to Paul and his staff at the library for being great hosts, to friends Elizabeth and Anne who helped Irene with the baking and to everyone who supported -we value you.

Friday Charity sessions at Hirwaun Library

It is now 6 months since we started our Friday presence at Hirwaun Library where we do Christmas shoe box activities and arts and crafts to sell for funds.   We have been touched by  the support of Paul and his staff and our volunteers who have grown in number.   People also drop in for a cup of tea and some home made cake whilst others bring along knitting and shoe box fillers.

The people of Hirwaun have embraced us and we are so grateful for the support.  Friday, 11th March will be different in that we will hold a coffee morning.  Please come along for some home made cakes and enjoy some competitions.  

Coffee Morning at Merthyr Tydfil

A successful Coffee Morning  at the Merthyr home of Trustees, Mihai and Ema on 24th March raised £61.50. Irene, Adina and Ema had been busy baking an assortment of cakes and there were cottage pies and also trifles on sale. The competitions "Guess the name of the dog" and "Guess the weight" of the cake were great fun.  We all enjoyed our time of fellowship whilst raising money for the Lord's projects in Romania.

A big Thank You to all who supported in any way.

We have another such event on Friday, 11th March at Hirwaun Library  10am to 12 noon.  We would love to see you all.
