CUSTOMERS at a Basingstoke business went mad as hatters to celebrate a landmark anniversary.

On saturday, Alison’s Wonderland, based at Viables Craft Centre, in The Harrow Way, marked 10 years since first opening its doors to the public.

To mark a decade of making handmade cards and keepsake boxes, owner Ali Clement hosted a mad hatter-themed tea party.

As well as celebrating 10 years in business, the event was raising money in aid of St. Michael’s Hospice and Cancer Research UK.

All the gifts at Alison’s Wonderland are uniquely sourced and cannot be found on the high street, from card scarves and raffia bags in the spring, always different and reasonably priced.
