Well, it's October already and plans for this year's St Albans Action for Homeless and Hope House - Supported Living Auction are Ho-Ho-Go!
🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅

Our elves are busy putting the Auction site together, but of course, we can only do it with your help 😀
Do you have any prizes that you would be happy to donate please? Or do you know any local businesses that you could ask to donate a prize? All ideas, contacts and prizes very, very welcome 😀

The Auction will run first week of December.

We were overwhelmed last year by the generosity of both local businesses and individuals, and raised a fantastic amount.

With your help, we hope to make this year even bigger and better and raise even more to help our friends.

Donated items can be dropped to Lynn Dutton (new greens) Sharon Linney (Cottonmill) or Maire De Burca (Sandridge).
🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅
