<p>Since I'm never going to run a marathon or grow a moustache as per some of my esteemed friends' charity efforts, I'm putting what talents I do have to good use.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>"Woolly Bus"</strong> is a fundraising event for local Sussex hospice the Martlets. Local knitters are making 4000 patchwork squares, with the aim of covering <strong>an entire B&amp;H double-decker bus</strong> by August when it'll parade around the city.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The <strong>money </strong>raised from donations goes to <a href="http://www.themartlets.org.uk/" target="_blank">the Martlets</a>. The <strong>knitted squares</strong> will get taken apart, and re-made into blankets for AIDS orphans as part of the <a href="http://www.knit-a-square.com/" target="_blank">Knit A Square</a> project. Double win.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm hoping to make 25 squares by August, and raise at least &pound;100.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>What's more, <strong>for a tenner I'll take design requests</strong> (within reason and capability!)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Every little helps, so please dig deep, even if it's only a quid or two.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Cheers!</p>
