20th June - Knights Solicitors 250th Birthday Garden Party

We have been invited by Knights Solicitors - the biggest solicitors' practise in Newcastle Under Lyme, Staffordshire to be the preferred charity represented during the day. This means that we are able to have a large display at the event (to which over 450 people associated with Knights have been invited). We are putting on the montage of Mark, selling our new brand of merchandise and will receive for our funds the proceeds of the raffle they are holding.

This is a fantastic opportunity to raise our profile in the HQ area and is our first fund raising event! We hope that through it we will also be able to attract local and possibly national sponsors from the array of businees personnel who will be attending.

Myself (cartoonist Chris Altham) & caricaturist Chris Ryder held alternate half hour 'How to Draw' workshops throughout the day. The event was very well organised & attended. The sessions were full with people of all ages picking up pen & paper to have a go. Very positive feedback & lots of happy faces on & off the paper!

Thanks to all who supported this Knights / SP8 event & to my daughter Holly for ensuring all had paper & pens.

Cheers
Chris
