Story

Annabel and I were planning a fundraising tea party for the National Garden Scheme's Great British Garden Party this week, but the government's rule of six knocked us for six. So instead, we had tea and cucumber sandwiches with a couple of friends and to raise as much as we possibly can, we launched an online raffle. Huge thanks to all the generous friends and relatives who have donated the prizes and to everyone who bought tickets.

The raffle was drawn on 25th September and the winners are below against the prizes.

If you would like to make a donation to our fundraising campaign Help Support our Nurses you can still do so from this page.
