Wreath-making Workshop fun
What a wonderful afternoon at our wreath-making fundraiser! There was plenty of mulled wine, cake, and warm sausage rolls to keep us all going, and everyone’s creative side truly shone through. It turns out we have some budding florists among us — the wreaths all looked absolutely amazing and so varied! Thank you to everyone who came along, supported the cause, and brought such brilliant festive spirit.
