✨ Leaves pull out from each end, so it's two tables in one
📏 Closed: 107cm long
📏 Fully extended: 167cm long (seats 6–8)
📏 Width: 76cm
📏 Height: 76cm

The top shows its age with some fading and wear, which is in keeping with its character. A clean and a coat of wax would bring it right back to life. A great piece for a dining room, kitchen or upcycling project.

🐝 PLEASE HELP US TO SAVE RYDE HIVE CIC 🐝

Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated and shared our appeal. Every single gift means the world to us. 💛

But we still urgently need your help. Ryde Hive CIC must bring our rent up to date by 26th October, or we will lose all three of our spaces on Ryde High Street.

We want to be completely open about where every penny of our £10,000 goal goes:

💛 £7,275 by 26th October brings our rent fully up to date, including this month's rent for 133 and 134 due on 21st October
💛 £750 by 7th November covers the rent for 132, our Ryde Thrift Hive shop
💛 The remaining £1,975 will help Ryde Hive CIC stand on its own two feet. Together with income from our shop, part of it will be kept as a buffer for future rent. The rest will go towards fully kitting out our Ryde Learning Hive, so it can host free workshops for the community and be rented out, bringing in a regular income to keep our doors open

Who we are:
Ryde Hive CIC supports people in recovery from addiction of any kind. We're here for everyone in Ryde, whatever their walk of life, and we're working towards:

🐝 Support for homeless people
🐝 Help for those facing domestic abuse
🐝 Support for carers and young carers
🐝 A community café for all
🐝 Free workshops and support groups
🐝 Children's and family activities

We've built all of this almost entirely with volunteers, and we're not ready to give up on it, or on Ryde.

👉 Donate here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-GB/donation-form/help-us-to-save-ryde-hive

You can pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Whether it's £5 or £500, every single donation brings us closer.

If you can't donate, please SHARE this post. Sharing really does make a difference.

Every penny goes back into Ryde Hive CIC and the people of Ryde.

Thank you from all of us at Ryde Hive CIC 💛
