We held a coffee morning on the 3rd December – a week later than yours, as on that particular weekend in our village there were three other coffee mornings happening, so I decided to postpone it to the next week to maximise the number of people available! A good idea as it turned out, as we were very successfully attended, by a good 20 people at least, raised a total £400!!! Reached by selling cups of coffee and slices of cake that we made, some very tasty Mary Berry’s carrot cake, with pineapple and walnuts in, chocolate mocha cake, some delicious muffins and biscuits. We also had a very well stocked raffle and tombola with items very kindly donated by the local shops. This is testament to how well the kind people of our village have supported our family over these last tortuous 4 years since we tragically lost Craig to ARVC.
