Challenging times and supporting better mental health

I'm not one for new years resolutions. Personally I've come to the conclusion that there are just too many challenges at this time of year! However, I've got lots of creative projects to pick through so will try and share a few as soon as I can. 

This is just a quick note to let you know that I will be donating monies from my handmade cards and other crafts to the charity Mind in respect of orders and sales from February so get in touch and stock up to support this great cause.

Total donations for Fareshare

Thanks to those who supported my fundraising efforts for Fareshare earlier this month. The total donations of £227.75 have been made towards the Christmas Appeal which is enabling Fareshare to increase the amount of food distributed and in doing so, reach many more vulnerable people at risk of going hungry.

If you want to support my next charity event, check back soon or contact me at jadedcrafter@gmail.com to receive further details.

Christmas cards for charity this year - fundraising for Fareshare

It's that time of year again, and this year I'm raising money for Fareshare. A charity which ensures good food is redistributed rather than wasted. Find out more here.

 
Please consider supporting this great cause. As well as Christmas cards I'm also including my usual brithday and other occasion cards in the fundraising efforts so now is a good time to stock up. Contact me for details of what I have available. A few of the Christmas options are detailed below.

Pack of Christmas cards - £10 for 10 cards, 2 designs (A6 sized)

 

 Individual Christmas cards with a variety of designs, priced from £2 each 

Do get in touch if you are interested in other designs. Please note that patterns shown below may vary slightly and sentiments can be amended (on request) as these are all handmade and can be made to order with alternative sentiments and personalisation.

Latest donations

Happy October!

It's been a quiet couple of months but I still raised £103.75 from purchases during my latest fund raising period for Hey Girls.
 
 
 
If you want to get in involved and support period poverty in the UK Hey Girls have a range of reasonably priced sustainable period products available to purchase. The "buy one, give one" pledge means all purchases support those with periods who are in need.

Raising awareness of period poverty and sustainable period products

It's that time of year again - I'm fundraising for charity with 100% of the money from my handmade card and other craft sales going to another important cause. 

As it's Plastic Free July I'm also trying to spread the word on switching to plastic free products and encourage people to consider switching to sustainable options. Therefore I've chosen to support Hey Girls which I hope will also make more people aware of period poverty in the UK. Not only do they have a range of reasonably priced sustainable period products available to purchase, they have a "buy one, give one" pledge which means all purchases support those with periods who are in need.

If you need a handmade card, now's the time to stock up. Get in touch via email at jadedcrafter@gmail.com to place an order. All money raised will be donated to Hey Girls which will also mean my donation will be doubled through their Buy One Give One model.
