Solar Aid fundraising

Following on from our enthusiastic speaker from Solar Aid last month, the solar team organised a fundraising afternoon tea. This was co-ordinated by Tref Mitchell and the solar team (Ann Topp, Helen Porter, Gina Bird) and was held in her garden. Over the 2 days 29 people attended and were treated to a sumptuous tea with all the trimmings. Selection of teas, sandwiches, cakes, scones and a final flourish with the Dresden cake!

Solar Aid donated tee shirts for the team which were ably worn and, given they are orange, can be put to good use in our Orange the World campaign while promoting Solar Aid too. A raffle was organised with a jewellery stand and plants for sale.

Members from the region’s clubs and friends and supporters all joined in for a wonderful afternoon, and of course helped with the washing up.

The event raised over £500 for the charity.
