A post from my events page>>> such a lovely thing for Darceys candles to be involved in...
Ltd Edition Small Gingersnap cookies candle
As mentioned earlier one of the main priorities of tonight's event is to support Social Bite and help homeless people to get a hot drink and a hot meal.
So we are offering for one night only our sweet and spicy gingersnap cookies in a small candle. This will not be available to purchase again!
The small candle is £8.50 and for each one sold we will donate a suspended hot drink for a person in need.
If you haven't heard of suspended meals, here is a story to explain it.
