The big day may have come and gone, but keep in touch as we’re always up to something new and exciting.
On Wednesday, June 26th, our 16th birthday was celebrated with an abundance of balloons and delightful birthday cake.
The excellent weather allowed us to make the most of our beautiful outdoor seating area, and many of our patrons joined in the festivities.
While basking in the sunshine, the tombola and bingo provided light entertainment and awarded some fantastic prizes.
Deanna had the luck to win both the bingo prizes - a box of chocolates and a bottle of champagne.
Everyone seemed to thoroughly enjoy the birthday cake that was shared around.
Joan from 'Time for Design' was present all day, showcasing her delightful card-making skills.
Jules from 'Jules Jewellery' also demonstrated the art of crafting her remarkable statement jewellery pieces throughout the day.
Pauline exhibited her impressive flower arranging skills to everyone.
We prepared some delightful grazing boards specifically for the occasion, and I must say they looked quite appetising. After enjoying the sunshine and food, guests leisurely made their way into the shop to make their desired purchases.
The "Happy Hour" promotion took place from 2-3pm, during which customers received a 5% discount on their purchases.
A raffle was held in support of 'Effie’s Independence,' raising £1,700 on the day to contribute towards an INNOWALK device for Effie, a 5-year-old little girl with Triplegic Cerebral Palsy. Last October, we also organized a Charity Shopping Evening that managed to raise over £5,000 for her equipment.
