A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the two evenings of Look Back in Laughter last week. Thanks also to those who bought tickets and came along to support our charity fundraising.
As a result of all our activities this year, we have raised the magnificent sum of £7,550.56, which is some £800 more than last year’s total and the highest amount raised in Charities Week since 2008. So well done to everyone.
