White Stuff Live and Love Locally

Posted on

White Stuff clothes store has supported 40 Degreez for over five years now.  Stores nationwide are entering into a week-long promotion over half term called Live, Love, Local.  Some of the Hangout and FAB members have painted their own little seed planters which White Stuff will be offering to customers for a donation – all proceeds from the week go to White Stuff Foundation to match and then donated to 40 Degreez.  The seeds are butterfly friendly wild flowers and will look lovely when nurtured and replanted into garden tubs.  Welcome to Spring and all the colour it brings!

Why not pop in during the week – Feb 11 – Feb 17 and check out what’s going on?

Carnival Day Successes

Posted on

Congratulations to Mike and Corinna  whose joint guess was the closest to the weight of the cake at 1330 grams.  The actual weight was 1340 grams so very well guessed.  Must be cake bakers to have been so close.

Congratulations also to Tara who guessed there were 1300 jelly beans in the jar.  The actual number was 1275 so well done Tara you have won yourself a White Stuff voucher for £10.

It was a great day despite the iffy weather and well done to Farnham Lions and Hedgehogs for their roaring success!
