Charity work

Every year the club selects a charity to support to help give for various reasons sometimes close to the members hearts or to help the local community.

This year the club is supporting the Countess Mountbatten Hospice Charity which is situated in West  End, Southampton.

Earlier in the year, Ron Foulkes from Countess Mountbatten Hospice gave a moving talk about the work of the hospice to relieve the suffering of patients and their families. The patients mostly have terminal cancer. Ron is grateful that the hospice has been chosen by HWA for our charitable donations this year.

The club donates pieces of turned work for sale – all proceeds go to the charity. below are a selection of work that has already been donated.

We would be  pleased to receive more turned items and suggest they are brought to the club’s next meeting.
