Have you got ants in your pants or what???Cant you relax for one minute.youll need all your energy for your new grand child.lol

I wrote to 40 companies..and got 30 responses of a huge variety of things...from some excellent dressing up clothes from a factory that supplies BHS to a box of biscuits..we raffled off many things at xmas and made over £200...which was rapidly spent by staff lol....
we also did a fill the matchbox sponser which was a really nice one for parents to share with their children...and when u send out the letter make sure u write that its for different items,some smartiepants filled matchbox with glitter!!!!..

I wrote to lots of companies and got a huge response and now writing again on behalf of another group!! Pizza Express you can do on their web site!!:rotfl: A great fundraiser is painting plates with the child's name,cost 50p(Ikea) and then sell at £4-5 pounds!! You could also do mugs,bowls.
