We certainly have our share of little catwalk queens at the Happy House.
When the latest parcel of beautiful dresses made by Dawn Spzak and her mum, Margaret Sumpter, arrived there was no shortage of eager girls ready to pose for a picture,
Dawn also popped in the lovely t-shirt her sponsor child Mercy is wearing, and she and her mum, a seamstress who as a young woman worked on gowns for the Queen, also made some handy drawstring bags.
Thank you Margaret and Dawn. As you can see, our girls think they look fab!

Off the rails
Go off the rails and make yourself some extra cash for Christmas.
That’s the challenge being thrown out to Lancashire people who are being invited to clear out their family’s wardrobes and sell off their pre-loved clothes, shoes and accessories at an event, in support of Happy House, organised by Blossom Ladies Boutique and Grace & Favour and the Sewing Sanctuary at and Marsh Mill Shopping Village, Thornton Cleveleys, on Sunday, October 25, from 9am.
Just book a space, in return for a £10 donation, and take along your own rail or table and sell away your pre-loved fashion favourites – be it men’s ladies or children’s.
Caroline Bramhall, owner of the three Marsh Mill businesses, is putting in time and energy to raising as much money as possible to support of our Building a Bright Future Appeal to finish, furnish, resource and staff our secondary school ready for opening in January, 2016.
