Ships fascinate Oliver. Amanda contacted Howley Joinery to see if they could make a stand. Within a few days the company had it built at no cost. “I was quite emotional when I saw it . it’s beautiful,” Amanda said. “Oliver believes in Santa and as a mum, I wanted him to have that magical Christmas experience.” Howley Joinery’s owner, Glen Howley, said the company was pleased to help. “Absolutely, we’ve got all the machinery here to do it.” Amanda said the joinery staff would have been rapt to see Oliver’s reaction to receiving the stand, helm and bell on Christmas Day.
