These shots were taken on Saturday 5th August in my garden when I staged a Garden Coffee Morning and Bring & Buy Sale to raise funds for The Children’s Society. This is an event that my wife, Yvonne, ran for many years - and I have carried it on.
In two hours we raised £422 to support the Society’s work with vulnerable and abused young people. Over the past three years we have raised nearly £1,500 at these events. Some 50 friends enjoyed the garden during the morning - either calling in for a few minutes or staying to sit in the warm sunshine.
The team who worked to keep the visitors supplied with coffee, tea and cakes included (from left to right) Lee Hawkes, Jenefer Allen, Jean Sibbald, Linda Bowley, Sue Paddon, Shirley Rudge and Val Smith. Linda is also seen with another Linda - examine a mobile - as you do!
