Action: ManyHands - Chorlton's Vegan Community Arts Cafe


 

We need fundraising activities to get enough cash together to afford the lease on a place in chorlton. We also need people to keep their eyes peeled for suitable premises with a kitchen and enough space for a therapy room or two.

We'll need help in moving into a place when we find it, i.e. electircs, plumbing, redecorating, beautifying and the like! That'll be the fun bit!

We need donations for our fundraising stall at Beech Road Festival in chorlton on Sunday 5th July... ideally art-based contributions for us to sell on and keep the full value (or give the cash to the artist minus a small commission). We'll also be on the lookout for writers/craftspeople/those who make homemade cosmetics (all vegan please!) or tasty vegan foodstuffs (ingredients lists please!).
