Wonston Community Café
by TheDever
After a break in August the Community Café returned in September raising funds for the RNLI. We were lucky with the weather again and most of our visitors enjoyed their coffee and cake outside in the sunshine. As well as our many regular visitors, this month the Worthies WI walking group joined us for the first time. A fantastic £230 was raised, after costs, from sales of coffee and delicious homemade cakes. In addition, Maggie and Pam, fundraising volunteers for the RNLI, raised £412 from sales of goods and Christmas cards. A brilliant result for the charity, and many thanks to all who bought gifts. Our next Community Café will be at the Victoria Hall, Sutton Scotney, 9.30am–12 noon on Wednesday 16th November when we will be raising funds for Canine Partners, a registered charity that transforms the lives of people with physical disabilities by partnering them with assistance dogs. The amazing dogs bring a greater independence and quality of life to their partners, offering security, companionship, and practical help with everyday household tasks. These life-changing dogs also provide psychological and social benefits including increased independence, confidence, social interaction and self-esteem.
