We have received a fabulous donation from a generous customer.. however it has completely jammed the shop full of the lovely things we now need to sort! Due to this the shop will be closed tomorrow to allow us to clear it all. Thursdays free workshop will still be going ahead outside the shop as usual. This week is collage making!

Mission Magpie will be closed during this unprecedented heat due to this particular magpie not being able to cope…
Let’s all do what we can to stay cool and get back to magpieing when the thermometer has come down a few notches!!
