Our Charity of the Year Launch

We would like to say a huge ‘Thank You’ to all those involved in the launch of our new charity of the year, Samaritans of Ipswich and East Suffolk on 29th April. It was a wonderful day and evening. Who knew that a book fair would attract so many people? The proceeds from the Book Fair and the Quiz Night meant that over £600 was raised on the day. This figure includes £183 from the sale of secondhand books! This was a great start to our charity year and is probably one of the best launch days we’ve had for any of our annual charities.

We would also like to say yet another big ‘Thank You’ to all the volunteers who helped with the Coronation Lunch on 7th May. It was a terrific day with so many people enjoying a very pleasant lunch on such a special occasion. A total profit of £340 was made on the day and this too will be donated to Samaritans of Ipswich and East Suffolk.
