FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Howdy Partner!
The Hospice West Auckland Craft Group welcomes you to the Wild West Market

The Wild West Market is a new West Auckland market, held on the third Sunday of every month inside the Te Pai Centre in Henderson from 10am – 2pm. Entry and parking for the market is free, with most stalls located inside the stadium (so you’ll be nice and toasty whatever the weather).

Hospice West Auckland’s Craft Group will have their own stall at the market - giving you the opportunity to support Hospice while picking up a variety of goodies including:
• crocheted blankets
• baby wear and booties
• scarves and beanies
• aprons
• hand towel and plastic bag holders
• tea cosies
• hot water bottle covers
• covered coat hangers
• …and so much more (the Craft Group have even been known to create All Blacks toys!)

While you’re at the Wild West Market make sure you check out the other top quality stalls, which include:
• exquisite jewellery
• boutique-style clothes
• indoor and outdoor art
• stylish homewares
• handcrafted sweets and chocolates
• gourmet and artisan foods
• …and so much more.

You can also enjoy a deliciously fresh meal or snack, savour a barista coffee or let the kids burn off some steam in the neighbouring park.

The Craft Group started 15 years ago as a group to help day patients make novelties which were then sold in the Hospice foyer. Now the group have a regular stall at Lynnmall where they have many loyal customers (upcoming dates are 15 June, 21 September and 9 November). The ‘craft ladies’ meet every Friday morning when they work their crafty magic while having a good natter, enjoying morning tea and laughing a lot. The Craft Group welcomes new members (call 834 9752 ext 704 or email info@hwa.org.nz if you would like to learn more). Those who can’t attend the Friday group are welcome to donate crafts to be sold.
