Thank you to Helen Coombes, from our kitchen team, who organised a bottle tombola at the recent Corbridge Midsummer Evening.
Helen collected all sorts of different bottles and bottle bags and helped by Jayne Purvis, our Activities Coordinator, supporter Marina Elliot and volunteer Avril McVittie organised a table to raise over £100 for our residents’ outings and activity budget. The bottles included two diffuser sets kindly donated by our care assistant Jodie MacDonald.
Berenice Groves, our Chair of the Trustees commented “Helen is a brilliant member of staff and is so eager to help in any way she can. We’d like to thank her, and all the other helpers, for organising a bottle tombola and for raising money for our charity – I heard she was sold out after an hour and a half! It shows how committed she is to The Charlotte Straker Project. Thank you again for all your hard work.”
We’d also like to thank the Crafty Women who raised over £50 for our resident activities at the same event.
