Closing Display
On 3rd May 2019, members
of the Auchincruive Floral Art Club, Ayr
participated in the Lonely Bouquet - Take me
Home/Friendship Bouquet event.
A display of flowers was created in the window of the PDSA Charity Shop in Ayr - advertising the event and taking the opportunity to promote the club . (PDSA is the UK's leading vet charity, providing free and low-cost treatment to pets in need". All flowers were donated by members and we received some lovely feedback:

This bouquet was
handed into a nearby shop - the person
thought it had been stolen! Was absolutely
delighted to receive the gift of the
flowers.

Manager of Whiteleys. Catriona handed over a cheque on
behalf of Auchincruive Floral Art Club for £750 to this
very worthwhile cause.
Whiteleys Retreat is located just
outside Ayr and provides therapeutic short breaks for
children, young people and their families with cancer
and life altering illnesses in the UK.
