The Encephalitis Society has been my If you want to nominate a charity for the Art Lot Charity of the Month since January - but I've another to mention today! But before that, just to say that a keen-eyed person in the Encep head office spotted my mention in this blog...and emailed to say 'thanks'.
That email led to another etc etc as they do, and the outcome is that my 4-to-5 guests on June 15 will be Charlie + Rachel Stanley-Evans whose baby daughter caught the virus two years ago when she was one..she recovered and is now a thoroughly naughty three-year-old, says Charlie with relief.
It will be a fascinating interview...Encephalitis hits at any age: I had it when 59. So make a date in your diary for that! Charlie and Rachel are both busy business people...yet with looking after two young daughters as well, still find time to raise money for The Encepalitis Society. http://www.encephalitis.co.uk/
Their company websites are:

Don't forget: if you have an event you'd like posted on The Art Lot Blog, then just add a 'Comment' and I'll post it asap!
