We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day. Our residents and guests thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment, stalls and games. It goes without saying that the Cream Teas & Pimms went down very well. All proceeds from this free event, totalling £500 will be presented to our two chosen charities. Thank you to all those who contributed to yet another great Garden Party.
