It was a lovely tribute to Mark and a much appreciated gesture. They raised a staggering £765! Thankyou very much, the lodge is very grateful.

Fantastic Summer Fair

The Lodge  began the celebrations of it/s 30th Anniversary with a summer fair. Scores, if not hundreds of visitors turned out to support the Ann Charlton Lodge's fund-raising day. Families and friends set out tombolas, craft stalls and outdoor games including a bouncy castle. The real 'live' fire engine was a great attraction for the children who all enjoyed a few bee-barps on the sirens and horn!

Together with the proceeds of a summer raffle, the day raised well over £2000 which will be used for the benefit of residents of the Lodge.

A million thanks to everyone who helped and supported on the day!
