As part of their 70th Anniversary celebration, SI Bilston & District hosted an Afternoon Tea at Worfield Village Hall, Bridgenorth on Saturday 29th June 2013. Regional President Dishi Attwood and friend Kate together with club members Chris Corless and Bev Billings went along from SI Lichfield.
With food and entertainment reflecting the 1940’s, guests were invited to come along in outfits from this era. Many Soroptimists dressed for the occasion and guests were treated to a tea of drinks, sandwiches and a huge array of homemade cakes. Music from the 40’s and 50’s was provided by Sarah Raymond and Marc Andrews, better known as the duo “String of Pearls”. It was not long before everyone was singing along to songs from an era all too many of them could remember!!
All profits from the event went to Spurgeons Young Carers Project, one of Tina Watson, the current club President’s charities.
