Sunday’s Supper Quiz was a huge success. Over 140 tickets were sold for the event beating last year’s attendance. We hope those who came enjoyed their evening - it was so lovely to see the hall full of people.

We are very pleased to be donating £1600 to myisrael for their therapy project - providing funds towards art materials for art therapy sessions, therapy dolls and animal therapy sessions.
