Our third charity lunch this year was held yesterday, September 9th. As usual it was held at the Foxfields Hotel in Billington. They never fail to serve us a lovely meal. The staff are excellent and nothing is too much trouble for them. Our speaker was Angela Fletcher. Her talk was entitled, ‘My time on the Great British Sewing Bee’. We listened enthralled as she told us about her time on the tv programme. She showed us the garments she had made and the challenges she had to follow. Angela was an excellent speaker. The talk was full of interesting information and lots of funny anecdotes.

Our next lunch will be on Wednesday, 25th November at Foxfields. It will be our Christmas event and about 10 stalls have already been booked to be there. Please contact us for more details if you want to attend.

The first photo is of Angela with our chairman, Barbara Barker and committee member, Wendy Walker. Other photos shows some of our guests enjoying the event.

We held our ladies lunch on Wednesday at the Foxfields Hotel. As usual the meal served was excellent. 70 ladies attended and the speaker was Mrs Carol Riley who talked to us about her lip reading skills. Her mother was profoundly deaf so decided at a young age to get involved with lip reading. She has been a teacher of the subject but has now retired.

We also had stalls selling jewellery, handbags etc and another selling ladies clothing and gifts. It was a very enjoyable event. We also had a very successful raffle.

Today we held our Ladies Christmas Lunch at the Foxfields Hotel in Billington and 109 guests attended. Once again Foxfields served us a beautiful meal. We had a traditional Turkey main course followed by Christmas pudding, ice cream or cheese and biscuits. Thank you once again to all the staff. We also had an array of stalls selling Christmas items, wreaths, jewellery, handbags, cosmetics etc. It was a very enjoyable event. We also had a very successful raffle which raised over £500.
We had two special guests today too. Louise Osgood, Macmillan relationship fundraiser and Lisa Wild, Macmillan relationship fundraiser team manager. They came to congratulate our small Ribble Valley fundraising committee on the amount raised since we began. Apparently we have raised three quarters of a million pounds!! We feel very proud as raising money isn’t easy! For such a deserving charity we have to keep trying.
Our next Ladies Lunch will be on Wednesday 25th February at Foxfields Hotel.
Just a few photos of the event.
