Making Christmas Cards for Children in James Cook Hospital

What You'll Do: 

What better way to spend an afternoon than making Christmas cards for those children who are poorly in James Cook Hospital and who would really appreciate receiving a handmade card. You don't have to be creative to get involved. We'll have all the materials you need to make some cards.  It's all about you giving up your time to make a child smile.  You'll meet lots of other students and enjoy a fun festive afternoon. Escape your studies and the stresses and strains of assignments , dissertations and deadlines - not only are you supporting a good cause but creativity is good for the mind and well-being. This activity will take place on Wednesday 11 December on campus between 12.00 - 3.00 pm. Please feel free to wear your best Christmas jumper!.
