Marie Curie Blooming Great Tea Party

Posted on June 6, 2013

Today I had my Marie Curie Blooming Great Tea Party and it was a huge success! I raised just over £500 and everyone ate lots of cake, drank lots of tea and had lots of fun!

I will be writing a detailed post all about my party for my Marie Curie Blog, but I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the many lovely local businesses who were so generous. Please do take a look at their pages as they are such good people to do business with:
