Coffee & Chaos playgroup last two weeks

Coffee & Chaos playgroup
Hello everyone,
Well, I am beginning to make final arrangements and say goodbyes.

I finish here on Sunday 30th June and we return to the UK (to Cambridge). We are already into the summer term (even if the weather won’t behave!) and numbers at playgroup have been low. I think, bearing in mind my other work commitments, and the fact that no one from the church has come forward to lead the playgroup once I leave, that playgroup will close at the end of May – so the remaining weeks are Thursday 23rd May and Thursday 30th May.

The toys are 90% donations and I am very happy for anyone who would like some to take them away with you over the next couple of weeks. They have been greatly enjoyed in the last 3 years and most are still fit for more play and more love!

Thank you all for coming, I’ve greatly enjoyed spending time with you and watching your children develop and grow.
May God bless you all!
With love,
Alison Walker

Hi again! This is Heather Von St. James, you posted my story a while back on your blog. I hope things are going well! The reason I'm reaching back out is because there has been a video made about my story and my mission to spread hope to others. If you’re interested, I think it would be a great follow-up for your readers who saw the original post from me. My mission here is truly to spread hope to those who need it, and this video could not be a better testament to my goal. I believe I am a perfect example that with hope, the odds don’t matter. I hope you will watch and (please!) share if you enjoy it! You can find the video here: www.mesothelioma.com/heather Thank you so much, and please let me know what you think of the video! Heather
