| Charity Bridge Afternoon |
 On Monday 20th May we held a very successful charity event in aid of St Clare Hospice, Hastingwood. We are pleased to report that, through the generosity of our members, visiting players and an impressive array of sponsors, we have donated the sum of £700 to our chosen charity. A big 'thank you' goes to the team of Rita and Peter, Barbara, Anne and Stan for all their efforts in setting up and managing this new event in our calendar. Our congratulations go to the overall winners, Brenda and John - the only pair to bid and make a slam, and commiserations to Ray and Lyn who went home with the booby prize.
The photograph shows the cheque being handed over by Rita and Barbara to Mrs Dani De ach of St Clare Hospice.
We are pleased to name the local businesses who generously provided a glittering array of raffle prizes:
Blooming Jacks florist, Hockings butchers, Central Electrics, Bubbles pet shop, Anchor fish & chip shop, Sainsbury's, Balloonatics, Capital Flowers, Bell Nails, Amy Louise, Nerissa & Claire's, Brick Lane Bagels, The Cheesemonger, Wake & Bakery, Eeny Meeny children's clothes, The Queen's Head Fyfield, The Black Bull Fyfield, and Fyfield Post Office.
