Ocean Grove Evening VIEW Club celebrated its 11th birthday recently at 360Q.

The night focused on the 1000 Hearts Kindness Project which started in 2016 in Kingston, Tasmania because Sarah, the founder, wanted to spread caring and compassion.

Small pocket hearts, which are handmade from wool felt and stitched with love, and good intentions are handed out for people to carry as talismans of love, courage, hope and comfort.

“A number of our creative and crafty members of the Ocean Grove Evening VIEW Club took on this project making hearts for all 150 members of our club as a way of saying thank you for all the work we do in raising funds to support the education of young people in need,” OGEV president Lea Preece said.

“A number of these hearts were distributed at our 11th birthday celebration, which included dinner, a band and a birthday cake.

“We also celebrated Annie Webber, who was nominated and accepted for a Make a Difference award as she is a fabulous role model of our VIEW values in her support and care of others in our community.”
