A CHRISTMAS workshop was held at the Launceston branch of Jo Downs Glass on Saturday.

People attending were able to make items of glass, while at the same time, raise funds for Children’s Hospice South West.

There was a raffle, guess the name of the bear and a drawing competition — £485 was raised for the charity.

Tasha Wickett from Jo Downs said: “It was quite busy most of the day. It was very enjoyable.”

Thanks were extended to Tesco for donating the mince -pies.

Jo?Downs will hold two more workshops, and will decide which charity to support prior to the events. More details can be found on the Jo Downs Facebook page or website.
