A quick fundraiser update. We had some more donations today and now we're just £280 away from our goal. Dare I say it's starting to seem achievable?! Have your ear plugs on standby in case we do it. The screams are going to be LOUD! https://t.co/2ZZTBnF86D

It's been a wild ride since our forge was burgled on Sun. We drafted a fundraiser, Tues we launched it and in 24hrs we've raised just shy of £2k. The support is overwhelming. If you're able to share to help the push to meet our goal, it would be amazing!

@biking_penguin @EssexPoliceUK It took us three days and endless endless phone calls to get a crime number but hey ho, we got there in the end.

[Urban Crafts @ucf_crafts]
