Quick Christmas Acrostic
(Written in-class on the Macclesfield College Creative Writing Course, 27th November 2008)
Crinkling log fire, glowing sparks;
Hearth warm, golden, inviting;
Robin sings on folded cards
In snowy scenes gladly left outdoors;
Steaming kitchen, sweet aromas diffusing:
Tasty treat simmering upon the stove implores;
Merrymaking still with Morecambe & Wise;
A time for sharing; or remembering,
Savouring the memories of the morning’s surprise.
Happy Christmas (and Happy Hanukkah) to all our readers!!!

Inner Mind Public Meeting
The Inner Mind Newsletter team invites you
the readers to our first Public meeting.
So come along and meet us to share your ideas. Inner Mind needs people like you with interests in Mental Health either personally …
Maybe you are a service user or carer and want to contribute articles for the next issue. You don’t have to be good at creative writing or be a journalist; it’s the taking part that counts. Are you a keen photographer or want to become part of our Editorial team? Then now’s the ideal chance to get involved.
...Or professionally; for instance, you may be involved in an organisation which provides services in Mental Health, and would like Inner Mind to publish information about your organisation or to promote events.
We are also looking for sponsors. As you may be aware, Inner Mind is part of the Community Newsletter Group, a non-profit making organisation, and we rely heavily on funding. Both Allen Lane and the Pennycress Trust agreed to fund us which we found to be a ‘life saver’. Do you think your organisation could help?
The meeting takes place on 8th December at 7pm - 9pm in the Dearnaley Room, 1st Floor, at the
Macclesfield & District Disability Information Bureau,
Pierce Street (off Great King Street),
Macclesfield,
SK11 6ER.
Refreshments will be provided.
Service users and professionals are very welcome.
