Hitchin Charity Donation

Since lockdown started and the Hitchin Bridge Club were forced to hold all their bridge sessions online, they dedicated one session each week as a fundraiser for the Garden House Hospice.

They invited members of all nearby clubs - many of whom could not hold online sessions - to take part and usually had 20 tables.

Last Christmas, they presented them with a cheque for £3,800. In October, they surpassed this and were able to follow up with a further £4,600.

A great effort by all concerned.
