Fundraising thanks
11:04am Thursday 4th September 2008
MANY thanks to all those who came to our Charity "Do" in our garden and to all our really good family, friends and neighbours working so hard to make the day such a wonderful success.
We really could not have managed without Betty, Carol, Catrin, Elaine, Hannah, Jo, Laura, Pam, Tesni, Sara, Steve and Verity who volunteered to man the stalls and wash up, and not forgetting Barbara Hope who made cakes and was our official photographer.
A lovely day was had by all with the sun shining on us. Thanks also goes to All Saint’s Church for the loan of the tea urn and china.
We made £524 on the day and, with donations received since, it has reached the sum of £550.
The Penarth and District Fund Raising Group for Marie Curie Holme Tower will benefit with £500, and £50 will be going to Cancer Research.
Thank you once again for all your help and generosity making it such a good and profitable day.

I remember that...
I HAVE attached an old picture of Daisy the donkey, with my father Charles Davies who was the gardener in the Seaview Children’s home Bradford Place, and an unknown rider. The field opposite the home was named the Donkey Field. I wonder if anyone remembers Daisy? I think I took the picture in the late 1950s. Daisy lived in a stable in the grounds and one of my jobs was to bring her in at night from the field. My aim was to ride Daisy from the field through the side driveway to her stable, but Daisy always took the corner with a fast swerve and I regularly fell off.
JPs sought
THERE are 22 million volunteers in Britain, who give freely of their time and effort.The benefits of voluntary work, of all kinds, to the community and the individual volunteer, are clear.
Thank you
ON behalf of Lower Penarth Community Association, I should like to thank everyone who helped raise £459.63 for the Marie Curie (Holme Tower) Hospice at the recent coffee morning.
