Helen Mars is a visionary and a true local legend. She has poured her time, money, and energy into creating Cobberton Gardens, a beautiful community space that has brought joy and benefits to so many of us in the Totnes area, and will continue to do so for years to come.
Helen is not only an incredible artist but also deeply committed to mastering the craft of wagon painting, complementing her already impressive wagon-building skills. Her dream is to live a simpler, more connected life, travelling the country by horse-drawn wagon, and sharing her artistic gifts wherever she goes.
She has found a master wagon painter who is ready to teach her everything they know, and as Helen's 31st birthday approaches on 3rd November, we think it's the perfect time to come together as her friends and community to support her dream.
The course costs £600, and while Helen has managed to borrow the money, it would be wonderful if we could help relieve this burden. Any contribution from our community will make a huge difference, allowing Helen to fully embrace this opportunity for learning, growth, and creativity.
Let’s help her on this exciting journey and show our appreciation for all the love and dedication she’s given to us!
