Story
Schools are being squeezed by funding cuts from the current government, enriching topics such as art are feeling the pinch the most. Art is more than just painting and making a mess! It teaches confidence, risk taking, patience and mindfulness, fine and gross motor skills. It can help someone express how they’re feeling and be a productive outlet for restless energy. You needn’t study art to become and artist or art teacher, you need to study art to become a rounded human being.
I want to raise a reasonable amount of money to support Kendall School in the continued development of their students education and well being through art. I will do this through extra curricular art clubs. Please contact me if you are interested in further details.

6 years agoGlazed Christmas Fruit Cakes are now available for purchase. Will serve four good portions. No need to spend ages baking a fruit cake that no one will eat! Makes a beautiful gift to those family members you don’t know what to give. Will continue to mature now until the big day, just keep in a cool place. They smell incredible. Thanks to my mum, (a past cookery teacher) for making these for me to sell! 😘. Cute aren’t they!?! #arteducationmatters #arteducation #charity #fundraising #thanksmum

6 years agoSo i’ve been thinking about what my next focus should be for fundraising, I have A LOT of jam, flavoured booze and planned fruit pies, cakes and more to go, so it would be a pity to stop! This one is even closer to my heart! My son attends this school, and I work in a support role here as well as running afterschool art clubs. I wholeheartedly believe in the importance of art. If you would like jam, fruit pies, booze, cakes....you’d be helping my local community as well as my cherub! Have you ever been pitched homebaking in a weirder way?!!
