One of the teachers and organisers of the Charity Craft Day was featured on "every picture tells a story" last night (Tuesday) on BBC Radio Humberside.
You can hear Lynnda Worsnop talk about what she does here, so a chance to find out more before you come along on the day.
We are still looking for Teachers and Demostrators who want to promote their workshops and classes on the day. Unfortunately a couple of people have had to drop out. Although the day so far is based around the Scrappers interest in all things paper we would welcome input from anyone who wanted to promote their classes. We want to see more people getting the pleasure and stress busting benefits from Craft on a long term basis.

Breast Cancer Care
We have been asked to clarify the nature of this Charity Event.
The cost and expenses of the event on terms of the hall costs etc will be met by donations from the teachers and retailers.
The money raised by the competition, ATC swap, ticket monies etc will be donated this time to Breast Cancer Care.
for detaills of what these mavellous people do check out their site http://www.breastcancercare.org.uk/
The Beverley Scrappers have supported this charity before but not in this format. We have had one event similar to this one to raise money for the Radio Humberside Making Waves appeal. On that day alone we donated £300 to that fund, We also donated to this and other charities at other events.
A number of people wanted to support the Charity but were unable to attend the event this was the reason for the competition and ATC swap being proposed., so that more people could enjoy crafting and supporting the charity at the same time.
If you have questions please email beverleyscrappers@googlemail.com

a chance to hear more about it
Lynnda Worsnop has sent in details of the event to Radio Humberside for them to include us on their events diary. The email was picked up by Steve Redgrave who has invited Lynnda to join him on his programme to take part in the "every picture tells story" feature, ( how good a subject is that for a scrapbooker).
Hopefully she will get chance to talk about the event!! listen in at out about 10.30pm ( yes I know its late but think about Lynnda she has to go into Hull for that time!) on 24th June 2008.
Another thing have you told your friends yet? why not make a day out of it? bring a picnic lunch and arrange to meet up, there is plenty of free parking and a lovely field to enjoy if the weather holds, if not we will make a picnic space in the hall.
Here is Lynnda with some pink buns from a previous breast cancer care event the scrappers held in Beverley. Could you make something for this event?
We are looking to serve hot and cold drinks, we could do with some volunteers to spend some time in the kitchen with the kettle on. If you could spare an hour to help with this please email the scrappers now.
I hope to see you all there.
