60% funded!! Can these shape-shifting otters take us to the next level?

Thank you for your support!  I am delighted to announce that we are now 60% of the way to our target and trending on Crowdfunder, but with just 11 days left we still need to raise over £600 each day to get there, so please do keep spreading the word.

Donations have been flowing in over the weekend which is fantastic, but there are also other ways to engage your friends and relatives - especially those who love art - as Jackie Morris has been holding the most creative series of auctions via her blog.  She has been auctioning several treasures from her studio which have been generously bid for via the comments section on her blog.  These have included gold-leaf finches and teasels, illustrated books, and now, until 8th February, a unique and stunning proof used to make a silk otter scarf.

This amazing image (which you can see in more detail on Jackie's blog) is currently at £1000 in her auction which is fantastic.  If that puts it out of reach for you then do not despair (but do tell your boss and any wealthy neighbours!), as these auctions are entirely separate from the original lark watercolour offered by Jackie that each and every person who makes a donation has a chance to win.

If you can help to spread the word – use #TheLostWords on social media -  and we’ll have a good chance to reach our (revised)£18,000 target and share the inspiration of The Lost Words!

Thanks again
