MAY I thank everyone who attended and bought raffle tickets at the 1940s Big Band Dance in the Pavilion Ocean Room on Sunday.

The amount raised for the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association (SSAFA) was £270. Also, a very big thank-you to the local businesses who kindly donated prizes and to Jane and Gwen who helped with the raffle.
