Silverburn Park
Silverburn Park in Leven are selling gifts to raise money for their Flax Mill Renovation project, check out their post below offering some goodies – and don’t worry if you can’t make it to their stall, give them a follow on Facebook for updates.
Check out your local charity shops

By shopping second-hand you can find one-of-a-kind goods and also feel good about the positive environmental effects of shopping pre-loved.
Check out your local charity shops if you can and feel safe to, but if you want to stay home, why don’t you try shopping charity shops online? Many charities are offering their donated goods on Facebook Marketplace and eBay – with British Heart Foundation even recently starting a Depop!
Whether it’s a quirky antique or fabulous vintage scarf… you can: find a bargain, make a loved one happy, support a charity and the environment! Talk about win-win!
If you’re shopping on Amazon…
If you’re shopping with Amazon, did you know that you can activate Amazon Smile to donate a percentage of your purchase to a charity of your choice?
It’s true! Amazon will donate 0.5% of your purchase to your chosen good cause when you shop, so you might as well set it up…
