Pupils from Langside, a special school for children aged two to 19 with profound disabilities run by Diverse Abilities, have designed a range of Christmas cards to help raise funds for the charity that provides a lifetime of support to children and adults with disabilities in Dorset.
James, Amelia, Gabby, Angel, Alicia and Isaac all enjoyed designing the cards while listening to Christmas music. The children also received help from their teachers while using their fingers and toes to create their master pieces.
Each pack contains 12 cards and includes two of each design in every pack. They are priced at £4 for one pack or three packs for £10. International Cards & Gifts (ICG), in Ferndown, very kindly printed the cards for the charity at no cost; therefore all profits will go direct to the Diverse Abilities.
Simon Wagstaff, owner of ICG, said: “Diverse Abilities is a fantastic local charity. All the staff are enthusiastic and work tirelessly in making other people’s lives happier and easier. It is our pleasure to produce the cards for free as it will raise essential funds the charity needs. It makes business a lot more rewarding seeing someone else benefiting from what we do.”
