DMF Mustard Seed Grants
Seashells Toddler Group at St James, Bulkington
They applied for a grant of £495 for child sized light weight folding tables for use in their toddler group, click here to see their succesful application form.
How did they get on? Here are extracts from their report:
"We were able to use the whole grant plus some money saved from our entrance fee to buy 6 toddler size go-pak tables. These are much lighter to move and store for our volunteers, and allow for a more flexible use of the space. Without a doubt the new tables have enhanced the experience of Seashells for both our volunteer team and those who attend the group. We are able to use the space more creatively – this has meant that our craft area (based on the Bible story) is more accessible and visible and has therefore been used more by the children. We are able to provide a safer space for the snacks and refreshments too."
