From 11am on April 8th we are going to post batches of items on the wall, starting with the first 10 from Album One and work our way through. To buy an item, you will need to be the first to post your name next to the photo. We will then clearly be able to see who has bought, and will thank you and ask you to PM us with the item number and a postal address. We can then arrange for payment with you. Ideally through PayPal, but cash or cheque is fine too.
Do bear with us, we will acknowledge your purchase and reply to your PM asap! Our Paypal is admin@woollyhugs.com When paying for a purchase, please include a note with your name and the item number, and say it is for MIND.
Huge thanks once again. Fingers crossed this will be a great success and we can help the lovely folk at MIND help even more lovely folk.
