Tenovus Coffee Morning

On 11th October, arguably the wettest day of the year,supporters of Tenovus met at Radyr Golf Club to see friends,to enjoy a cup ofcoffee and to browse the very interesting stalls which featured cards, locally made bread and cakes, glass engraving, embroidery, knitted and other crafts,beauty products,flower arrangements, colourful scarves and books.

There was also an opportunity to view and buy original work,very kindly created by local artists and a photographer,to raise funds for the Charity.Many grateful thanks are extended to Keith John, one of the artists,who organised the production of cards displaying prints ofthe images.Packs,containing six beautiful cards,suitable for all occasions, to use with your own message,wereon sale. This is a wonderful new venture to markthe 70th anniversary of Tenovus and the adoption of the Charity for the 2013 Festival. Cards are available for purchase from the number below.

The event was also kindly supported by Enerchi with an interesting and informative talk by Janet Thompson,a specialist in lymphoedema treatment,who is available for private consultations.

The morning proved to be very enjoyable for around 150 people and the magnificent sum of almost £2,000 was raised on this occasion. Many sincere thanks go to all who braved the weather to support the Charity and to those who contributed to the event with their time,and in other,very generous ways,to help the Friends of Tenovus to make the event such awonderful success.
