Success at the Table Top Sale November 2021
Despite the continued backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Autumn Table Top Sale held on Saturday 6th November at Shoscombe Village Hall was appreciated as a friendly, sociable community event. It was run by Shoscombe Village Hall Association, in conjunction with Friends of Foxcote Church, who made sure refreshments and a variety of homemade cakes were available. £125 was raised for Shoscombe Village Hall funds through table bookings, and other donations, and the Friends of Foxcote Church were grateful for the £310 they raised through their gift table and sale of refreshments. Other local sellers were also glad to raise funds through the event, including for a variety of other charities.
Sellers present on the day included Shoscombe School Association (FOSSA), Single Hill Flowers, Wellow Knitting Group, Mel Chalfont Griffin, Hilary Glanvill, Ray Dickson, Sue Baillie, Yvonne Grace, Elaine Renwick-Forster, Penny Harris, Joan Sharples, and David Sharples and daughter and Emma Blackmore-Burston (Tropic ambassador). Together they offered a wonderful variety of handcrafted goods (woodturned, floral, knitted, woven, beaded, painted, decorated...) as well as bric-a-brac and house and garden items, plants, skincare goodies and other gifts.
The Shoscombe Village Hall committee thanks all who booked a table and those who came to browse and buy. It now asks the local community of residents, families and friends to ‘save the date’ for the next one to be held, the Spring Table Top Sale on Saturday 23rd April 2022, at the slightly earlier time of 1-4pm.
For the next sale large (1.8m) tables are £8 plus a raffle prize donation and small (0.9m) tables are £6 plus a raffle prize donation, with payment due in advance. If you are interested in booking a table for then, please get in touch with Mary Bon on behalf of Shoscombe Village Hall Association (marybon.me@gmail.com). Tables will be allocated on a first come, first serve basis.
