We are delighted to be part of Dementia Friends Petersfield by providing information sessions during April and May to our staff and volunteers. This is an initiative to ensure those with dementia feel supported by their local community. Our thanks to Ruth Sander, Dementia Champion, who ran these sessions.

We held a Royal Tea Party in May. Attended by over 30 of our “regulars” and guests our pre­wedding afternoon tea took place in a lovely setting beneath Butser Hill. Special thanks to Sue and Jane Atkinson of East Meon for hosting this event and for the delicious scones and brownies, Ann Johnson and her daughter for the divine Royal cup­cakes and to Sheridan for her super sandwich selection.
