Bowls Club Raises over £1000 for LOROS

At the end of June St Margaret’s Co-operative Bowls Club held their President’s Evening which is an annual charity supper where funds are raised for the Club President’s chosen charity. This year’s President is John Clarke and his chosen charity is LOROS.
John has powerful reasons for supporting LOROS. Over the years LOROS has cared for probably a dozen or so people in his circle including family, close friends and a former member of the bowls club. As we all know LOROS gives help at a very difficult time and John commented, ‘In each case I have been totally impressed with the care and compassion given. It has been flawless.’
A buffet meal was enjoyed by all – a sumptuous variety of food prepared and assembled by club members. The evening was rounded off with a disco, supplied by Disco Fever, who generously contributed to the amount raised.
The evening was well supported by club members and friends. Ticket money was supplemented by raffle money and to this was added a very generous personal donation from John Clarke. The grand total raised for the evening was £1, 071.
All in all, a most enyoyable and productive evening was had by all.
