Charity Christmas Card Wall

Again this year we will be running our Charity Christmas Card Wall

We will start this from Sunday 4th December 2011,  so watch this space for further details.

The idea is that instead of passing around Christmas cards to all your friends in Vale Da Telha, Aljezur and the surrounding areas, who you probably see on a regular basis – simply donate some money to charity and have your message printed on “The Wall”.  (To make this worthwhile, we are looking for a minimum donation of €2).

Amovate Committee members will take your donation and brief message to be placed on the Wall
