Shane Record has strong ties with The Church
Street Project, a registered charity providing Art Therapy
and Therapeutic Counselling to children in Shepway.
Over
the last three years Shane has coordinated three fundraising
projects.
The first, a raffle, offered locals the chance to
commission his 100th painting since coming to Folkestone as
any view of their choice.
The second, The Bigger Picture Project,
saw one of his pictures being cut up into 100 pieces, sold
to and recreated on a larger scale by local businesses. This
year’s project was the first Folkestone Sandcastle Competition – and
it is hoped that the fundraising competition will be held
every year on Sunnysands beach.
So far, Shane’s
initiatives have raised nearly £5000 for The Church
Street Project, although the raising of the unit’s profile
through these activities has lead to significant separate
donations, far greater than the fundraising revenue itself.
If you would like to help fundraise for The Church Street
Project, or would like to make a donation please get in touch.
