Burnham ladies serve up a tea-riffic fundraising boost for charity!

A group of generous Burnham-On-Sea ladies have this week raised £270 for St Margaret's Somerset Hospice by holding a fundraising tea party.

Barbara Fletcher with her team of friends organised the 'Tea @ 3' event, which was held in her garden, where a cream tea was enjoyed by supporters which included the Mayor and Mayoress of Burnham and Highbridge.

Julie Draper, Community Fundraiser for St. Margaret's Somerset Hospice, said: "We are very grateful to Barbara and her loyal friends for giving their time, energy and resources to support the work of St Margaret's."

"Their commitment to fundraising is outstanding. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success."
