I held a ‘Girls Night In’ for another charity last year, and I thought that this year I would do it again but this time for CRY. So, a group of us had a girls night in at my house; there were about 25 of us. There was a £5 donation/entry fee. We had a raffle, an auction, sold cocktails, alcoholic cake!! We basically just had a natter and a laugh.

I chose this charity and in particular this memorial fund as both Katrina and Cheryl were friends of mine and also of the girls that came to the evening. Katrina and Cheryl’s mum and sister also attended the evening. We all know each other very well and it was an enjoyable evening for all. Everyone contributed to the amount raised and I am proud that we all could do that.

My dad is involved with another charity, Soul Aid, and they kindly made a donation to the event to enable me to get some extra wine, nibbles, raffle prizes etc. A good time was had by all whilst raising money for a good cause. 🙂
