    The Genesis garden party was held on the 31st of July and was a great success with good weather encouraging around 90 people to join together for a huge barbecue, games and food stalls plus a bouncy castle.

    Many thanks to those who came and those who helped.

    The event raised £650, which is fantastic and will be used well.

    Next stop… we get posh at the ball!
