Kirkby garden party success, despite the rain


After a sunny morning everyone was hopeful that the promised showers wouldn't materialise and Jo Maxwell's fundraising garden party would remain dry. It wasn't to be but the rain, when it finally arrived, only added to what was a lovely afternoon spent in the Maxwell's lovely garden eating delicious cakes and drinking tea. Sheltering under umbrellas friends caught up on the latest news whilst children ran and played around the tables.

Jo's fantastic efforts and the generous contributions made by the guests saw a fantastic £225 raised in aid of the 'Wall Fund' which is aiming to sort out a major damp problem in the town's Methodist Chapel. You can keep an eye on progress with the fundraising appeal by checking out the display on the front of the Chapel. Well done Jo and her team of helpers.
