Character News - Freya raising funds for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
This Febuary I am taking part in the annual 28 Day Challenge to raise money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Each year since 2019 I have been raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People by, in 2019 and 2020 making dog treats, in 2022 I made some treat bags, swam 280 lengths of a pool over the entire month and made some more treats.
This year I have made 28 Valentines/Dog themed heart ornaments to give to people. So far this year I have raised £400 which takes my overall total raised to £1625 and I am in the top ten fundraisers in the UK!
I had to assess what would be a good craft that people would want, what I could post out to people and how to get the materials. I made some designs on the computer and then had a lesson in how to make the vinyl and add it to the acrylic hearts. I have kept my JustGiving page up to date and taken lots of photos for social media, made sure I got the orders and addresses right and packaged them up.
Here's my fundraising page and I've attached some photos of the hearts I made and some of the lovely comments that supporters have left: https://www.justgiving.com/page/freya-chipperfield-1706647684731
