Afternoon Tea Dance at Upchurch Village Hall







Photos courtesy of Jill Lewis.
The second Afternoon Tea Dance, held on Monday 26th September in the Village Hall, was again considered to be a great success.

Everyone who came enjoyed either dancing or just watching others dance, and all enjoyed a pleasant Afternoon Tea. In fact it was said it rivalled Afternoon Tea at the Ritz!!

The Team extends great thanks to the ladies of the Bowls Club who supplied cakes and sandwiches, and to the husbands for being general dogsbodies and washer uppers.

All profit will go to support the Village Hall to help keep this amenity in the village.

It’s likely the next one will be in January next year so watch this space.
