It’s a busy weekend for festive cushions!

30th November, the Old Parsonage in Otterbourne have their Christmas Fair between 2.00 and 4.00 pm. Lots of great gift ideas, and a festive cushion! They have a special place in my heart for the wonderful end of life care they gave my Dad in September. http://www.brendoncare.org.uk/pages/old-parsonage.aspx

30th November, at the Autumn Frost Fair at St Peter’s Church, Bournemouth, opening at 10.00 – I’ll be there at the opening, bringing the cushion – and hopefully there when it’s auctioned! http://btcp.org.uk/who-we-are/st-peters/

1st December, the Isle of Wight Asthma Swim Group have their Christmas Lunch at Lugley’s Restaurant, Newport. It’s a members only event but if you’re going, you will find a cushion (its not a festive one, they’ve had it a while, but I promise it’s pretty!), lurking in the raffle.

1st December, the Elizabeth Foundation who do extraordinary work with profoundly deaf babies and toddlers in Portsmouth have their Christmas Fair from 1.00pm and of course there’s a festive cushion there, too! They’re on the QA campus – if you go in from Southwick Hill Road and turn left, go straight down the road, left at the end and their warm and friendly facility is on the right. http://www.elizabeth-foundation.org/

3rd December, Tools for Self Reliance have a Christmas Afternoon Tea at their base on Ringwood Road, Netley Marsh (just off the A326, Totton Western By Pass). I didn’t know they’d use it a Christmas event so again, it’s not a festive one, but I hope you’ll like it! Find out more at http://www.tfsr.org/2012/05/14/forthcoming_events/
