Lady Arnold chaired the most amazing community tea where over 350 vulnerable elderly residents were entertained with the theme of “Vote 100 – Votes for women”

Everyone had a great time and this was entirely organised by volunteers from across the community,  all the voluntary organisations were invited to nominate guests and bring cakes and bakes.

There was a great turnout and a tremendous good humour of the whole event, entertained by the Choir from the Police and the local school children
