Pippa’s friend has organised a Green Saturday sale (rather than a Black Friday one).

Idea: table top sale of good quality items including homeware, toys, mistaken purchases PLUS retro, vintage, repurposed, upcycled and homemade creations.

20% of all money taken goes to charity. Pippa has a table and her chosen charity is the River Thames Boat Project. It would be great if you could come along and support this local, environmental event.

Date: Saturday 23rd November
Time: 10am – 12 noon
Venue: United Reform Church Hall, 35 Hampton Hill High Street, TW12 1NB
Tea and homemade cakes available

After almost 30 years at our current address on Hill Street, we need to find new office accommodation. Fothergills have generously allowed us to use our bijou office for a nominal rent but in early 2019 they are downsizing and so RTBP need to find a new space for our 4 staff.

Can you help with any ideas or local contacts who might have some office space to spare?

We need:
– space for 4 people: circa 20 square metres,
– ideally to be close to the boats, so either Kingston or Teddington,
– to be in a new home by February 2019!

If you have any ideas, inspiration or contacts, please get in touch with Pippa (020 8940 3509, pippa@thamesboatproject.org) in the office. Thank you!
