Age Concern – Lunch at Armstrongs

The lunch arranged by Age Concern at Armstrongs in Sabanillas for 6th November was a great success with over 50 people attending for a great three course meal and a silent auction. 350 Euros were raised to support the work of the volunteers working in the community with older people. Thanks go to Richard and Julie Wood for organising the event, to Armstrongs for a great meal, and to all who supported the event.
