Community Crafternoon – 22 May

The ‘Community Crafternoon’ is about pulling together to support refugees fleeing from war.

We’re acutely aware of the plight of Ukrainian and international refugees and would like to raise some much-needed funds to help.

Our lovely event took place on the 22nd May between 11:00 & 3pm at The Fishermans Chapel in Leigh-on-Sea.

————-

We’ll have stalls, local live music, tea & cake, and the opportunity to make a square for a quilt that will be gifted once made.

Music:
Matt Linnen is from Southend, and made it to the semi finals in Series 14 of The X Factor as part of the Over 27s category, mentored by Nicole Scherzinger.

Love Won’t Be Long is singer Harriet Lambert, and guitarist Enzo Harrison from Leigh-on-Sea.
