I’m M.A.D!
Making A Difference that is…. I may well be certifiable under patriarchal psychiatry but that’s a whole other thing… 
That’s a double bed, covered in scarves, 32 of them in all colours, various designs and ALL donated to be gifted to Women in Refuge across the UK this Christmas. I’ve been coordinating this since August. 100 Women will be opening an anonymous gift and I hope we can bring a smile and some warmth to their lives.
Those are the 32 I’ve had sent here, I’ve wrapped them and will be arranging post/delivery in the next week or so. But so many women have jumped on board with this that between us we are gifting over 100 women in 7 Refuges - and the children in at least two of those locations too.
Today I’ve been asked, "So what shall we do for Easter then?" I’ll have to think of something that can be knitted or crocheted as the women helping out here are all crafty types and all knit or crochet, but not until after Christmas.
Wow, those scarves are beautiful, Sharkbait.
That is a wonderful donation you’ve made!
