Clothes Swap
8pm Wednesday 24th March 2010
To book a place contact: Helen 01225 891915 or Kirstie 01225 891567
It's fun, it's frugal and it's eco-friendly, plus a great chance to refresh your wardrobe!
Bring along up to 4 items of clothing, to include bags, belts, scarves, shoes & boots, that someone else would be delighted to own.
Cost: £2.50 per person to cover the cost of wine & nibbles.
If you would like to come along, then please let us have your items for swapping at least 4 days before the event (see us at school or pop them round to 92 High St when you can).
They don't have to be expensive designer clothes but it is really important that they are a reasonable quality, clean and in good condition. It is also really important that the swapper is completely willing to part with the clothes as once they have been entered into the swap, there's no going back!
At the end of the evening, you can either take home any of your original clothes that are still there or leave them with us and we will take them to a charity shop.

Primary School Inset Day Workshop
Friday July 9th 2010 - afternoon, Marshfield Community Centre.
Details to be confirmed but may be willow weaving - just the thing to do in the Community Centre garden on a beautiful July day! Let us know if you're interested, places went fast at the last one. Adults need to accompany children under 10, to help with the fiddly bits and spend lovely time with precious offspring.
Weekly at Marshfield's Country Market
Fridays 10.30 - 11.30, Church Hall, Tormarton Road, Marshfield
Sale of children's toys etc which have been donated to Present Sense. Items are not priced - you pay only what they are worth to you as our concern and that of the donors is that they are re-used. No offer refused!
All proceeds after costs are used to pay for Present Sense website and other project costs.
The Country Market sells tempting local produce: Fruit, Vegetables, Organic Meat, Cheeses, Jams, Pickles, Eggs, Cakes, Biscuits, Savoury Dishes, Fresh Cut Flowers, Plants, Knitwear, Hand-made Drawer Scenters, Soft Toys, Jewellery, Cards and Present Sense Gifts! Refreshments available.
We are happy to help you arrange any appropriate events or workshops, whether near or far. Please email us at info@presentsense.co.uk with contact details and an idea of what you would like to do, however vague or specific!
