On Thursday 4th October the Rhyme and Reason Fundraising Group gathered together with friends, family and supporters at Beaconsfield library to launch the 17th edition of their book. Tony Buzan of ‘mind mapping' fame kicked off the proceedings with a few words and a selection of poems from the book.
Rhyme and Reason is an anthology of short stories, poems and articles by new and established writers, all of its proceeds are donated to IRHH. This year the group ran a hugely successful schools competition where children entered their poems into a prize draw. Those that were selected have been printed in this year's edition of Rhyme and Reason and we were lucky enough to have a number of them come along to the launch and read out their poems.
£315 was made on the evening and Rhyme and Reason were delighted to see so many people there! We would to thank all people involved for their help and support and we look forward to another successful year of fundraising.
