Some of the members of SI Richmond and Dales met earlier this week for a social outing to local beauty spot Thornton Hall Gardens<\/a>.\u00a0 These gardens are entirely the work of the current owners of the hall.\u00a0 Parts of the building date back to 1550. This is a renowned local “gem”.\u00a0 \u00a0After exploring the lovely displays of flowers and shrubs, the members had an excellent afternoon tea.\u00a0 This was produced by local catering firm Davina Lovegreen Catering<\/a>, who works with Thornton Hall’s owners on the limited number of days each summer that the gardens are open to the public.\u00a0 The occasion also provided an opportunity to present two members with their 30 Years Service Certificates – we are very grateful for their commitment to Soroptimism over so many years.<\/p>\n
