I don't know if this is permisable on this list but here goes-
URGENT APPEAL ON BEHALF OF THE MUSEUM OF WITCHCRAFT
On 16th August 20004 the Museum of Witchcraft in Boscastle, Cornwall, UK,
which holds one of the most significant Pagan and Witchcraft collections in
the world, was seriously damaged by flash floods which have devasted
Boscastle.
Graham King and all the Museum staff are safe. The building is still
standing, but there is serious damage to the collection. We will not know
the extent of this for a while yet.
The Museum is appealing for help from the Pagan community. They would like
to assure all their friends and supporters that the Museum will be back.
The friends Of The Museum and the Pagan Federation Devon and Cornwall are
co-ordinating the appeal for help. Two kinds of help are needed:
Donations; If you are able to send donations:
By PayPal for everyone internationally, please visit
http://www.witchcraft.org/
Cheques: please make them payable to:Pagan Federation Devon and Cornwall
and send them to: PO Box 314, Exeter, EX4 6YR, UK. Please send cheques,
postal orders or IMOs (not cash) and mark the envelope "Museum Of
Witchcraft". All donations will be acknowledged (eventually!).
Practical help: All kinds of volunteer help will be needed to clean up,
save the collection and re-build the Museum. This help will not be needed
for a few days yet, but if you can help, please email your details to
either: thecrowman@houseof the oldways.fsworld.co.uk or: [email protected].
Someone will contact you when we know what is needed. We will also email
updates as we get them.
Many thanks and Goddess Bless to everyone who has already been in touch to
offer help and support. The Museum will not be beaten by this.
Please circulate this information as widely as you can.
Blessings of the Old Ones
Levannah Morgan and Adrian Bryn-Evans
(Friends of the Museum Of Witchcraft and Pagan Federation Devon and
Cornwall).
