Preparing the food

The Summer B-B-Q was a gret success with a great turn-out of members and families.

The weather was excellant and so far, we have raised in excess of £400, with funds still coming in.

Thank you to The St Paphael Singers who entertained us as well as the help and assistance offered by the many volunteers as well as staff members.
