The 24-Hour Challenge (NI)

Support my 24-Hour Challenge for Samaritans!

I'm taking on a 24-hour challenge to support Samaritans' lifesaving work in Ireland & Northern Ireland, and their mission of fewer lives lost to suicide.

All funds raised here will support Samaritans' branches across the island of Ireland to help them be there for everyone who needs them, 24/7.

I hope you can help me by donating whatever you can. All donations are processed securely.

Thank you for supporting me and supporting Samaritans.

Challenge over!

Tuesday 29th Jul
Thank you all for your lovely donations! My 24 hour (ish) sew-athon went off without a stitch last Thursday and I managed to sew a total of 19 items over the course of the day: 

- 1 tote bag 
- 2 mini tote bags 
- 3 drawstring bags 
- 1 (very long) pencil case 
- 1 zipped pouch 
- 8 bookmarks 
- 2 hair scrunchies
- 1 dog bandana  

My strategy was to focus on small items I could start and finish in half an hour or so. I'd hoped to get a few more tote bags done but ran out of steam! Planning to do this challenge again next year if it's running, and maybe aim to do some clothing instead! 

Thank you again for donating
