Strawberry Tea 15 July 2017 in memory of Arabella Campbell 21.2.1997 – 13.5.2013
We had a beautiful day for the 4th Strawberry Tea on 15 July 2017.
There were dozens of cakes, scones with cream and handmade strawberry jam, strawberries and cream accompanied by Prosecco, Pimm’s and tea.
Apart from the Tea we had plant stall, handmade crafts for sale, vintage clothes and a lucky dip.
For those unable to join us on the day Suzy Dury organised a bring and buy sale at Morley College. Arabella’s cousin, Amy Dury, raised money from face painting at a family party and many friends donated via JustGiving.
As always, the raffle was hugely successful with very desirable prizes kindly donated by friends and family; Jo Malone products, half a case of Prosecco, luxury hampers and many more.
Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon, we all felt that Arabella was with us and we have raised over £2,300 for CRY. Huge thanks to everyone, especially Jo and Mark Barden for hosting the Tea and for those who baked, helped set up and clear away and all those who donated so generously.
It is wonderful that so many of Arabella’s friends and family want to celebrate her life in this way.
