Despite us enjoying this summer weather - we do, as a charity, have to think further ahead and think of Christmas plans.

Let me tell you a wee bit about one of our 2023 Christmas Cards.

i commissioned renowned local artist Catherine Rayner to do this card and she has surpassed my expectations - a wee robin, always a special festive bird anyway, sits atop a corner of the beautiful panel in our garden. The panel was lovingly created by Kev and his team at ArtFe and is known as Jo’s panel. Many of you will remember Joanna. An exceptional and inspiring young woman who was a big part of Team Itsgood2give - first as a Young Ambassador, then a Trustee and finally as part of our admin team. Jo loved basketball and playing her trumpet so Kev has two wee mice doing that on the panel. (There is always a mouse on Kev’s pieces somewhere). The panel is so beautiful that I wanted to have a wee bit of it on this year’s Christmas card.

To round off the good news about this card, all printing costs have been covered so every penny from sales of these cards comes to It’s good 2 give. Some of our superb volunteers packed them and now they are ready for sales!

They’re £5 for a pack of ten cards and envelopes and yes we can post out to you - we only charge what it costs us.

We’ve got 500 packs to sell and want to sell out obviously.
