On May 15, a group of our beneficiaries in Cumbria held their annual coffee morning fundraiser, which is always a lot of fun for all who participate. Mary Glover, one of the event's organisers, wrote this report of the event for the local paper:
"We had smiles and laughter all the way for our annual coffee morning on Saturday. Our volunteers gave their support as always. Doris Watson (pictured far right, next to Area Manager Kay White) served refreshments while Sandy MacCrea-Stewart (pictured second from left) sold almost everything on her white elephant stall.
"On Mary Glover's (pictured third from left) stall there was a range of homemade cakes, jams and chutneys, plus a double chocolate torte made by Sandy. Elizabeth Pender organised the raffle prizes which numbered more than 20 and included luxury toiletries, chocolates and biscuits, stationery and wines.
"£177.72 was raised for Independent Age, and thanks go to all who assisted and gave their time and efforts, and to our many visitors."
