I have been approached by the Ceremonial Mayor of Salford to have 1 of my Paintings of Salford Precinct by day put in a charity calendar for November 2024 to 2025 in aid of St Annes Hospice and the Royal Naval Association . The Calendar is available for purchase now.
I have also donated the original Painting which was auctioned at the Ceremonial Mayors Ball on the 22nd March 2025 to raise funds for St Annes Hospice and the Royal Naval Association, The Painting raised £350 on the night to go to both charities
Here is the post from Salford's Ceremonial Major Tanya Burch
Hurry up to get your copy of the Ceremonial Mayor’s charity calendar 2024-25!
£20 each or 2 for £35
Please contact mayoralty@salford.gov.uk to purchase.

So Help raise funds for Wythenshawe Safety Patrol , they use the funds to help the true homeless people of Wythenshawe and not the gangs that operate and exploit our good nature,
