AGE UK'S BIG CHINWAG

To support Age UK's Big Chinwag on Friday 19 June, I have designed a mug inspired by the Combat Loneliness Campaign and modern calligraphy lettering. I work from home so I can understand missing human interaction. However I am very fortunate to have a very supportive husband, my dog Ham and amazing neighbours and friends that I can call upon.

This design has been created using a modern calligraphy style which I recently learnt on a day course with Quill London and Lamplighter London (thoroughly recommend it!). The words used on the mug came to me when I learned about the Big Chinwag campaign and to help spread the word about making time to have a chat with someone who might not have family or friends close by. 

The mug is available to buy from my Etsy shop and the proceeds will go directly to the Age UK East London day centre which is up the road from where I live.
