Duty Managers Ben Thacker and Suzie Foulkes have been busy organising our first summer Fete at the Court, raising essential funds for a local hospice, Forest Holme in our neighbouring town of Poole. The event was opened by The Worshipful, The Mayor & Mayoress of Bournemouth, Councillor & Mrs Lawrence Williams. The Mayor & Mayoress joined David Cooke (chairman) on our patio and spent plenty of time chatting with our Owners and enjoyed the selection of goodies that our stallholders had to offer. The Mayoress commented that she had always wanted to have a look around our gardens as she had admired them from her Town hall offices situated next door to the development. The Fete was well attended by our Owners, their friends & family. We raised an incredible £271 on our raffle alone. The prizes included a Magnum of Prosecco and several donated prizes from our stallholders. It was lovely to see that the sun joined us half way through the event making every ones day as rain was predicted. In total we raised £456 to be donated to Forest Holme Hospice. A fantastic effort from us all.
