Very sad times...



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hi everyone,

We'd like to let you all know that we have decided to change things at Mum's the Word.

Just four months after our launch, and after many fun Friday afternoons spent playing bingo, doing crafts, and swapping anything we can think of, we're finding ourselves out of pocket every week due to dwindling numbers and hefty overheads.

MtW is the only group of it's kind locally with the focus on activities for the parents. Our feedback from most of you is that this is a great concept, and that you will continue to come to the group. The problem is of course you can't all come, all of the time (thank goodness - we would never have enough cake!). Joking aside though, and it breaks our hearts to say this, we are going to have to stop completely if we don't get some more bingo-playing cake eaters to support us each week.

So, from February 25th (this Friday) we will start to run MtW every other week. We hope this will entice more of you to come each time, and will give us more time between Fridays to think up fun and innovative things to do.

We'd really appreciate your further feedback about the activities, the venue, the concept, and would like to hear any of your ideas, and whether you'd like to see MtW stay on the Stoke Newington parents' calendar. If any of you would like to get involved, running a 'Week of my Own' or making cakes, please let us know. The more of you who get involved, the more likely it is that MtW has a future.

It has been great getting to know you all, and we hope to keep MtW going for many years, so please email us to let us know what you think.
 
Thank you,

Alice and Alice x
