St Mary's Lighthouse Christmas Card is from an original painting by North East artist Emily Ward. Each pack contains 6 Christmas cards of this local coastal landmark.
Emily Ward's painting of St Mary’s lighthouse
standing proud on the tiny rocky tidal island of St Mary’s, formerly called ‘Bait Island’ really captures the beauty of it. The Keepers’ Cottages can be seen behind the sea spray from the white peaks of the rolling waves covering the little causeway.
Fostering Under Newcastle
Emily is supporting the charity Fostering Under Newcastle. In lieu of the closure of the North East Homeless Charity, all monies raised will be donated instead to Fostering Under Newcastle.
Fostering Under Newcastle, FUN, is a voluntary organisation and a registered charity. We have a dedicated group of volunteers who have formed a committee and throughout the year we organise events and activities for Newcastle Carers and for the children they care for. FUN is run by a group of Foster Carers for Foster Carers. The clue to what we strive and hope to achieve is in our title, FUN!
