Steve's Odd Socks!!
WAR calendar 2019 and WAR Christmas cards
One of our amazing supporters kindly offered us her expert help in designing and printing a WAR calendar for 2018, the calendar was a huge success so the lovely Shelley offered to do it again this year and we have to say its even better than last year!! So we ran another competition for WAR adopters to enter their furbabies in to win a spot in the calendar, the competition was lots of fun and raised over £70 for the rescue and I think you will agree the winners are simply gorgeous!
The Calendars are 150mm wide and 420mm long, they are £6 each plus P&P but will be available to purchase in Groomingtails.
Now not content with making awesome calendars Shelley also designed these amazing Christmas cards!! This is our first year selling Christmas cards and we think they will be a hit. They are £5 for a pack of 8 cards plus P&P.
And as ALWAYS ALL PROFITS 100% GO BACK INTO THE RESCUE
