On July 4th Yvonne & Michael Neville held a Truly Scrumptious Coffee Morning at their home on a glorious, sunny day.

Inner Wheel members baked a large number of delicious cakes to serve to all our guests or sell on the cake stall.  Many thanks to the members who worked very hard in the kitchen to serve cakes, coffee and tea to over 200 guests from other Inner Wheel Clubs, Ravenshead Church, family and friends.The bric-brac-stall full of “once loved” items and hand made beads was well supported and proved to be a great success.

The raffle display included decorated  homemade bird boxes and a beautiful handmade cushion and pashmina scarves handmade in Nepal.

There was a large variety of stalls well stocked with books and cards, magnificent plants, lovely clothes and different tasty cheeses.

Rotary members very kindly helped to erect the marquees in the garden and to put out a large number of tables and chairs for all the guests.

The Coffee Morning was a great success and raised an amazing £2, 212.00 for the Children’s Society, President Elizabeth’s chosen charity.

Yvonne’s heartfelt thanks go to Inner Wheel and Rotary members, who worked together as a team to make the Coffee Morning such a memorable occasion and a great success.

We wish to thank Yvonne very much for offering to host the Coffee Morning and for all her hard work and meticulous organisation.

Pat Shepperson joined Inner Wheel five decades ago and has served the Mansfield Club well.  She was President in 1976 and spent many years as a committee member.

President Anne, Rosemary, Jennifer and Carol visited her last Friday and presented her with a Certificate from the Association acknowledging her achievement.
