Deal & District Spread a Little Xmas Cheer

3/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Deal and District Flower Club spread some Christmas Cheer in their local area.  Many members made Christmas arrangements and some were delivered in a safe manner to people that they felt deserving or just to let them know they were being thought about, some arrangements were left in the town with a label saying “ please take me home” and on the reverse side “ made with kindness by a member of Deal & District Flower Club “.

What a fabulous way of connecting with each other and the community.  They thoroughly enjoyed doing it
