☀️ HUGE THANKS 🙏 to the team at Tesco for coming to our rescue this morning when we had no bins.

🗑 A glitch with the council bins meant we had to improvise - and in true " Blue Peter" style (for those of us who remember 😉) we created bins 🎨

Its at moments like this that true community spirit shines through ✨️ and Highcliffe Food and Arts Festival appreciate it 🥰

🎪 We were thrilled to meet Issac and Beauden Dignam this morning, who came to see us in Mary's Kitchen.

✨️They were both prize winners in the 🎨 competition to design a face following the style of Guissepe Arcimbolo, a well known Italian artist who lived from 1527 to 1593.

Do come and see us, we are here until 5pm today
