Raising funds for local charities
A new booklet has been published by local artist and writer Chris Hague that will raise funds for local charities, including New Horizons.
The booket costs £5 and ALL money raised will go to local causes.
Currently the booklet is available directly from Chris and at the outlets listed at the bottom of the page. If you are interested in obtaining a copy please email
Please also get in touch if you can provide a local outlet for the booklet with no overhead charges to ensure that all the money it raises can go to charity. Maybe you own a local shop or business prepared to do this.
Here's a sample from the booklet covering the letter A:
Chris explains her inspiration on the back cover:
I am Chris Hague. Like many people living in Marple I'm an expat. I was born in Yorkshire and moved to Marple in 1972. I love its location on the edge of the Pennines, the buildings, canals and the history that surrounds them. In Marple Through The Alphabet I have tried to capture my love of the town, finding a theme for each letter, taking a photograph and then sketching it. I hope you enjoy the booklet as much as I have enjoyed preparing it.
All the proceeds from the sale of the booklet will be donated to Marple charities.
Booklet available at Marple Stationery Supplies
Marple through the Alphabet is available from Marple Stationery Supplies on Stockport Road. All proceeds from sales there will go to the shop's chosen charity Special Kids In The UK.
