Our Alnwick coffee morning at The White Swan Hotel was a huge success on Friday as we raised £726 for Parkinson's UK. Gary, Wendy and Joanne were delighted to meet you all and serve you tea, coffee and cake.

Thank you to all who attended for your generosity in support of a great cause, and to our volunteers who helped organise the raffle and tombola and who provided the delicious bakes for all to enjoy!
