Details:

This is the latest fundraising evening for the Environment Centre. As an independent charity these events are key to us being able to keep the Centre open. Please do come along and support us!

 

We believe raising funds should’t be too serious a business! So the evening should be great fun, with some interesting novelty lots too!

 

The event is FREE! Come and enjoy some free rereshments from 6.30pm.

 

At 7pm Judith will introduce her fantastic pictures. From then on it will be over to our professional auctioneer, who will guide us through the bidding process!

 

IMore donations are being made every day so come back and check the catalogue regularly.
