A coffee morning to raise funds for a Ugandan trip to support the Pearl of Africa choir's work there was a great success on Saturday in Halsall.
Organised by Sue Weekes and Jennifer Holden-Booth from Ormskirk Clocktower Rotary Club, it was held at the village's St Aidan's hall.
Sue is one of the Rotary group travelling to Uganda in February; the morning was raising funds to take with us when we go - and fund projects we'll be working on out there.
Stalls included tea and yummy home made cakes, a tombola, white elephant stall, book stall, jewellery and home made jams and chutney. We also sold cakes and held a 'Guess the weight of the cake' competition, with everything sold made or donated by Rotary members and friends, and Pearl of Africa supporters (www.pearlofafrica.org.uk/)
We had a busy morning with lots of people enjoying a cake, a cuppa and natter, with the total raised an amazing £697.70 - thanks to all who supported!
And Ormskirk Clocktower Rotary Club members who supported this event continued with their generosity later the same evening by enjoying a Cheese and Wine evening hosted by President Alan Tickle and Jayne, his wife; the evening raised £200 for local charities.
