Speak Up Somerset
August, 2005I just wanted to tell you how pleased I was to be invited to not only your Jazz Evening but also to sell our books during the day. As well as educating the public in mental health matters, we also aim to give some work to those in recovery. All the illustrations you saw in journals, diaries and calendars were done by them. We were so pleased to make £77, along with the £10 Marilyn made. We are very grateful to all of you in the village of Cross — we would love to come again and to support such a worthwhile charity as yours.
